One claimed wheat and admitted barley/ I claim one thing ("wheat) and he admits another (barley)/to give an irrelevant reply===

In a question: He answered with an argument that is not relevant. We argued against him with a complete argument and he answered with another thing. He answered on a matter other than what was asked (literally: He demanded wheat from a man and he was asked for sacks for the gates).

("As it is taught: 'One claimed wheat and admitted barley' — exempt; Rabban Gamaliel deems him liable'" — Bava Metzia 100b. And likewise: "In short, this one says כך and that one says כך, this one says כך and that one says כך, one claims wheat and the other admits barley" — Shalom Aleichem / Fifty-five Thousand, to her.)
