Neither source is reliable, and I greatly suspect that the story is
made up, lo dubim velo ya'ar, and nothing at all can be learned from it.

The story, whether true or false, sheds no light at all on that question.

That statement is an obvious falsehood, no matter who is alleged to have
said it.  It is inconceivable that any intelligent person could honestly
