80. Nysen Shiny, travelling cookware salesman, knocks on the door of the Gingerbread House, where Wicked Witch lives. She invites him in.

When he tells her he sells cookware, she says, “Oh, good. Do you have a pot large enough to hold two small children?” He responds, “Oh, yes. Our HG pot is the one for you.” He excuses himself to make a phone call, and Witch rifles through his briefcase, finding a spec sheet which shows that the HG pot is clearly not large enough to hold two children, and in fact there aren’t any that can. However, when Nysen returns, Witch sweetly orders the HG pot, figuring a pot big enough for one kid at a time will have to suffice. The pot arrives, and Witch sues Nysen for misrepresentation. Assume that Witch suffered financial loss from the fact that she could boil only one kid at a time (lower productivity, translating to loss of revenue from sale of magic potions made from the boiled children). Can Witch recover?
