This is the sort of desperate dialectics verging on logical rudeness I find really annoying, trying to rescue a baloney claim by any possibility. If you seriously think that, great—go read the papers and tell me and I will be duly surprised if the human lie-detectors are the best calibrated people in that 20,000 group and hence that factoid might apply to the person we are discussing.
And how likely is that, really?

Seems like homework for the person making the claim, I’m just pointing out it exists.
Nit-pick, they could be the worst calibrated and what I said would hold, provided the others estimated themselves suitably bad at it.
