Is their a fallacy for when someone tries to change their story.

Person A: Does not mean all people will do X.

Person B: come on really, use commonsense. I'm a realist , don't think some wouldn't do what I commented...

Person A: the key word is some and not all.

Person B: Let's pretend we through responding to each other...key word I never said all or some..
