There is no "lie" involved.
Just going to note that basically everything besides Omniscience isn't worth Showing into play in a variety of matchups. Having a card that is 2U, win the game is great, except when in a significant portion of your matchups it's actually "flip a coin, win the game". Dropping a legend into play hasn't been reliable in a long time. Omniscience (or Dream Halls which sees no play anymore) is still fairly reliable. SnT->Omniscience is also at least a three card combo, also typically requiring finding specific answers post-board prior to comboing.

ANT (including TES here) is still the most streamlined deck in Legacy and it's not even close. It has tradeoffs with Doomsday regarding rituals vs cantrip effects which affect things the decks can or cannot do vs hate, but both are way more reliable combos than any current Show and Tell strategy. Show and Tell has other benefits, but simply being a two card combo that instantly wins most matchups isn't actually one of them.
