A little ambiguous, to be sure, and a rewording might be useful.  But a
commonsense reading is that it is wrong to INTENTIONALLY pass info
to pard under the guise of making an explanation.  On the other hand,
if the correct and legitimate answer to a question INADVERTENTLY
and INCIDENTALLY passes info to pard, this is (IMO) not a violation
of 73B1, but is UI.  However, Ui is only a problem if pard could have used
it, in which case there can be a score adjustment.....  Several people
have alreaady pointed this out.
 
AG : partner opens 1NT, you bid 2D (a transfer) and partner wrongly explains
it as GF Stayman. In that case, you're right, the transmission is
inadvertent.
 
Now he bids 2S and you explain it (on request, of course) as a
superacceptance. Here, you transmit information that he misunderstood your
bid. Inadvertent means "without knowing it would happen" and this doesn't
apply here.You know 100% that he will get the information.
 
It is in those cases that L73B1 creates a problem, and that hDW (and YT)
advocates a change of attitude.
 
Best regards
