What would be some fact that, while true, could be told in a context or way that is misinfomating or make the other person draw incorrect conclusions?

Implied where? All the coffee snobs I know drink lighter roasts and derogatorily call dark roasts “supermarket coffee”

I think it's more a marketing push from commercial brands and chain coffee places. Most of them will brand their products as "rich" or "bold"
