Candace mocked him for pronouncing the word "data" correctly.
It was always pronounced "day-tuh" until the song "Major Tom" became a hit in 1983. Peter Schilling said the word as "Dah-Duh" because he's German.
Ever since then people started pronouncing it incorrectly.
In 1987 Gene Roddenberry created a character called Data to remind people how to say the word correctly.
Yet here we are how many years later and someone as smart as Candace is still mispronouncing it.

Glad these nitpicky first world problems are finally getting the attention they deserve... 🙄
