The only thing I found relevant was:

§ 61.51(e) (3) An authorized instructor may log as pilot-in-command
time all flight time while acting as an authorized instructor.

which is not me because I am (AFAIK) not "authorized" to give
instruction to that CFII (who is actually the one giving me
instruction).

are you multi- rated or not? were you the sole manipulator of
the controls? if you answered yes to both questions, then you
log PIC;

then, were you receiving instruction? if yes you log it as such;
and your instructor logs the thing as giving instruction and PIC
since he/she was the authorized instructor.

And I was pretty sure the multi thing was a no-no. I just thought I'd
get clarification. I know for a fact there has been people who logged
PIC time while they were getting their private, which would fall under
the same issue.

while getting their private? it is was while flying solo, ok then; if
while receiving instruction (and they were not rated since getting their
private) then they shouldn't be logging PIC.

Also, would you mind telling me whats so disturbing about a CFI asking
a question like this? Would you rather I just guess?

it is kinda disturbing because as a CFI you should know this stuff
inside out, since you are supposed to be able to teach it...
