I hadn’t even seen the episode yet! Michael Vsauce doesn’t have to ask, so he must know.
But I don’t think it’s very wise to say the same thing twice, it just highlights that there is no actual argument. At least “it is what it is” says something about things outside of our control. When it’s “An honest witness tells the truth, but a false witness tells lies.”, I’m just left there thinking “yeah… I guess that’s what words mean.”
It is what it is!
