just because investors have the presumption that presentations are lies and founders have the incentive to lie during the presentation doesn't somehow warp reality into thinking that prediction was a good one. It may have constituted a good business decision to lie during presentation day, but whether or not that's true is wholly independent of the state and accuracy of the prediction itself; that prediction sucked.
