What's a true fact that is so misleading it's borderline misinformation?
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?

This is minor one, but annoys me how comnmon this is: light is made out of litle packets of energy called photons.
Here is a good video on the topic: https://youtube.com/watch?v=SDtAh9IwG-I (Too lazy didn't watch: Light is an electromagnetc wave and is is not quantized. Only the interactions between atoms and light are quantized)
I was under the impression that electromagnetic radiation is both a wave and a particle, and it's known as the "wave particle duality".
"Light propagates like a wave and interacts like a particle"
huh, I thought quantization of light(or energy really) came from Heisenberg's uncertainty principle
