Sorry, you're wrong.  The corbomite bluff was introduced in "The Corbomite
Maneuver" -- hence the name of the episode.  It was resurrected in "The
Deadly Years", just mentioned in a bluff message to Star Fleet; it wasn't
even essential to an understanding of DY to have seem CM and understood the
reference.
