Sadly, such wordsmiths are far from rare in the world of business. Very often they will go through linguistic gymnastics to make every action of theirs sound good, and justify things they shouldn't have done as okay. In my personal experience, salespeople are the worst about this, as their entire job is really to bullshit people into buying a product.
