No. The definition of “lie” is to deceive. But I mean openly to their advisors and investors. Not to their competition. But I do thinks it’s possible to openly fake something. Consider when Penn and Teller do those “open” magic tricks. The surface effect is no less amazing because you can see how it’s done - in fact it’s more so, at least to me. Maybe it’s good to see it once the closed way, but then opening up the box just ices the cake!
