It is. An "inaccurate" post is not a post that should be marked as Unhelpful. If you recognize that the information is inaccurate, post the correct information. A disputive post is unhelpful, and can be reported with the Alert function.
Isn't an inaccurate post unhelpful though?

When posted information is inaccurate, hopefully it is alerted to the mods or, if others point it out to the OP, the OP adjusts/deletes the misinformation.
In at least some of the threads where I've seen the IBTL posts, it's in large part joking and building community in those forums.
