I feel like the ultimate Zen master move would be intimately training a student for 20-30 years, and then one day saying to them "Now you are ready for the highest truth, and it is this: Everything I've taught you is complete bullshit. I made it all up!"

nonono, the real Zen approach is to say that on day 1. the student doesn't believe it at first. then 30 years later when they've managed to convince themselves through direct experience the master says "I told you so."
