My point isn't invalid. Communication is messy, and this is an example of that. "I was in the middle of the ocean!" Did you think I was in water? You're wrong

My point isn't invalid. Communication is messy, and this is an example of that.
"I was in the middle of the ocean!"
Did you think I was in water? You're wrong. I was on an island that is in the middle of an ocean.
"I stayed in a hotel in New York."
Did you think I rented a hotel room? No, I simply stood in the lobby.
You can't say that because someone says something without constraining it with every detail, that the communicated point is incomplete. Communication is a loose protocol.
