I will say as someone who deals with these officials they NEVER want to say the wrong thing you you always get approximants... It is like pulling teeth to get any sort of solid number.

I actually feel for them. People play gotcha games with numbers, but it's really unfair.
There are many words for logical fallacies, like "straw man" or "what-aboutism".
But is there a word for the fallacy of dismissing someone simply because they cited a number incorrectly, or they didn't remember a number off the top of their head?
