Distinction without a difference
text:
A distinction without a difference is a type of logical fallacy where an author or speaker attempts to describe a distinction between two things where no discernible difference exists. It is particularly used when a word or phrase has connotations associated with it that one party to an argument prefers to avoid. For example, a person might say "I did not lie; I merely stretched the truth a little bit."
