I'll bet that even though argument doesn't move anosognostics, they get argued with anyway, at least a little bit initially. The fact that no one has tried to convince me my arm is paralyzed is sufficient evidence for me to proclaim that the odds of it actually being paralyzed are significantly lower than 1 in 10 million.
You just gave me the idea for a brilliant prank...
This was the first evidence that came to my own mind, FWIW.
