I presented empirical evidence of kidney function disturbance by lithium, which took me less than 10 seconds to find. It is irrelevant that others exclude data to reach contrary conclusions.
Moreover, I showed one of many kidney disturbances from lithium intake. I've already shown your supposition to be false.

It's not meant to be profound. It's a simple word play. The first statement primes the mind into considering one option, whereas the second statement is about something else entirely. It is not that 'fruit (collective noun)' 'flies (verb intransitive)', but that 'fruit flies (noun plural)' 'like (verb intransitive)'.....
