Caspar, Jim is totally on board with picking apart such a dumb stereotype. He's seen Spock do it, too - both of him, even. Misleading him with his own assumptions, lies by omission, loopholes and technicalities... what was it Spock had said? Vulcans embrace technicalities, or something like that.

"You'd think, right? People get hung up on the part where they like factual information and verifiable data, and I guess a lotta humans assume that since they don't just straight-up invent total bullshit, that means they don't lie at all. Talk about no imagination. I swear, finding loopholes is the unofficial Vulcan pastime. If Spock ever got bored of science, he'd make a hell of a lawyer."
