I had a very approximate reading and understanding how the concept of “bad faith” enters into the mix. In my mind I was thinking of a situation that if what I say mainly implies whether I get hit in the face in the next second what I let out of my mouth can’t be said to attest to the truth of any matter. Consent under duress is no consent and in a similar way testimony under duress would spoil it from being any claim of fact making it incapable of being a lie (yet I used term “lie” to refer to a statement that would on literal english level be a claim of fact which in a speech act sense it would not be). In a way when you give into a “appeal to stick” you are yielding, not affirming anything.
