No. That is, this is one meaning of the word "babble", but in this context "babble" means the device was still transmitting when the host expected it to stop. In other words, the device sent a larger packet than the host expected, like a 64-byte packet when the host expected only 18 bytes, or a 3-byte packet when the host expected only 2 bytes.
