You’re not wrong

The other definitions are not wrong ;) but there is another use. “You’re not wrong” can also be strong agreement. It can indicate that the speaker is surprised by the statement being agreed with. I can imagine a non English speaker would be driven nuts by the fact that this phrase can mean anything between you’re not really right, and you are really right! It’s the intonation, stress, and speed that makes the difference. It would be wildly difficult to explain in a space like this. It in writing, the latter is sometimes indicated with an exclamation point.
My sister had told me she could tell when I am thinking in German and make an effort to speak in English. I had never noticed this (it’s been 25 years since I left Germany so this surprised me). Me: “you’re not wrong!”

Me to husband: “She’s not wrong!”

For all the wrong reasons 

You can interject this when using a word that sounds positive, for something that's negative, especially when evaluating the purpose of a messed-up object or when replying to something truly stupid someone told you they did.

If you do the last thing written, it's a clear sign of potential pwnage in you.
Example 1: "When you're a teen life is interesting for all the wrong reasons."

(Interesting stuff when you're a teen: Booze, drugs, what's under other people's clothes, kitten huffing etc.)

Example 2:

Moron: "I just bathed the cat and put it in the microwave to dry it. He exploded just like I thought, but his fur dried up nicely."

You: "You're incredible. For all the wrong reasons."

Example 3:

Gun nut: ..."Yeah, The Eviscerator has everything! With a good aim, you can shoot someone in his spine, blow his brains out AND make him drown in his own blood!

You: "Sure, that thing IS versatile. For all the wrong reasons..."

The Wrong 

An unspeakable implied act of depravity.
