I'll replace 'Nott' with Bob', and 'Shott' with 'Joe'.
Mr. Bob was shot and Mr. Joe was not.
So it is better to be Joe than Bob.
Some say Bob was not shot.
But Joe says he shot Bob.
Either the shot Joe shot at Bob was not shot,
Or Bob was shot.
If the shot Joe shot shot Bob, Bob was shot.
But if the shot Joe shot shot Joe,
Then Joe was shot, not Bob.
However, the shot Joe shot shot not Joe, but Bob.
Better?
