With "deceptive" I mean that efforts have been made to make it look like something it's not.
Say it's glossolalia, and the person really wrote what they thought were "tongues" coming to their minds. In that case it's not deceptive because it ended up looking "language-like" because this is the way it came to the person's mind. The lnaguage-like properties are a result of what it is, not because of what it's made to look like.
If, however, the VM text would turn out to encode a whole string of numbers, then my statement is that it is deceptive since we are given the impression that we're dealing with language, the kind you'd find in paragraphs accompanying herbal images.
