The half life of facts

Very good points. What about the perspective that people perceive “wrong” differently? To one person, a refinement means new information, add it to the heap. To another person, a refinement isn’t additive: it replaces. To still another person, they see a web of interconnected bits with new nodes popping up that were not previously there. If you asked each of them what constitutes being wrong, you might get three wholly different explanations.
