Nobody means not a single person. It's one thing to say that there is an interpretation that makes the most sense given the situation and the context. It's completely another thing to attack the intelligence and analytical capacities of others for reading what is said plainly.That people don't get that she was speaking specifically about John and not their cousin, uncle, son, husband....is indicative of the level of their intelligence and analytical capacities. Sad.
Even the subtext that you are reading is, at the end of the day, an assumption. So, while everyone else here is taking this in and speaking from a personal place, maybe you shouldn't be going around being unnecessarily (and ignorantly) insulting.
