Ah. Well, you've got me there. I'll think about it. Your comment makes me think, though, about a more general issue. Is there a name for a bias that can happen if you think about an issue multiple times and get more and more convinced by, what actually, is essentially only one piece of evidence?
Well, there are various ways to double-count evidence, but that sounds a lot like the idea discussed in this post.
Thanks.
