I see two problems here...

1) you already know more than the average salesperson. If you're not there to buy, why bother correcting them? Coming across as a "know it all" person isn't going to help anyone.

2) Who cares? I can't tell you how many "salesperson" know so little about their product. The actual, productive, good salesperson doesn't sell you a product or a good. They sell you a service that aligns with wants and needs. I see it all day in the tech industry. No one knows their products, they all know talking points. Only the enthusiast knows the product.

That's why some dealers cater well to enthusiasts, because they give them only what they want: price.
