But now we’re just getting into the technicalities of it all, which is a losing prospect for the GOP. Saying “Well yeah, there was a demonstration, but…!” pretty much takes an axe to the argument that the administration “lied.” If there was a demonstration that was being used as cover, and the initial assessment was that the attack couldn’t be proven as terrorist in nature without burning valuable intelligence assets, then saying “We believe the video was the motivation” is not a “lie.”

Absolutely. I didn’t say it was a lie though, just pointed out that the story seems to have evolved since that NYT article was published.
