Similar to someone raising, then you making a point of saying they always raise with good hands while you and others still have cards.

Not at all. The point isn't the predictability of the play, it's the outright lie involved.

Lying is allowed in poker. My point could have easily said "you are a good player, I'm going to fold" or "I gotta call you, cuz you are unlucky". This indicates that you have analyzed the situation AND ARE NOW BROADCASTING YOUR "INFORMATION" TO THE TABLE. You are potentially affecting others in their decision making. That is the ethics/etiquette question. Not whether you should expose a lie.
