The Man-in-the-middle’s statement is akin to the following :

2 = 3 thus, by multiplying both sides by 0, we get 0 = 0, which is true !

He said it’s in the middle because 2 people disagreed, and he states that the truth lies always in she middle in these situations. which is false, exactly as false as 2 = 3

Thanks for the read !

Jokes aside : being right for the wrong reasons is being wrong
