Well swap the flashlight for a laser pointer and I'm sure saying the color shimmers if you switch it on two times very fast isn't harder to understand than saying it makes patterns on a wall if you shine it through two slits. No need to be explicitly wrong, even if explaining on a lower level. In fact, the betrayal felt when one later learns a contradictory (not clarifying) truth is bad for learning.
