But obviously you can't be blatantly deceptive or stupidly in error, and you can't be denialist in the Trump style, of course you might only know you were wrong long after enough new knowledge is uncovered.

Science is accepting new knowledge has some foundational right to challenge your ideas, science is not denying that right dogmatically or refusing to even investigate the questions.

You have the right to accept new science and also defend your own science, you do not have the right to deny new science by political means.

Yes, I agree, and all important points.
