This only works if posed verbally. In written form, you are wrong, as "sixty cups" and "six tea cups" mean entirely different things.

No there are still 6 teacups because if one "as in myself" falls down then I am on the ground but 6 tea cups are still standing.

It should be: "Nein,
das heißt es nicht."
