"I _could_ care less (but I can't be bothered)."
It's okay to say something with the same words as an idiom, without using the idiom.
The idiom was a mistake/mistranslation in the first place.

Like a code review, do better than just saying "This line is wrong". Suggest an alternative. Especially one that flows naturally into the prose.
