I don't understand why people assume Vulcans and Data can't lie because they don't have emotions.

You don't need feelings to lie.

I don't understand why people assume Vulcans don't have emotions. Their emotions are stronger than those of any human.

They're largely autisticly coded, and we don't generally lie, to the extent that it causes us problems. So I'd guess people are picking up on the coding.
