So let me update my statement a bit: Replacing "right" by "true" won't make the problem entirely go away.

Sure. For instance, the Scientology folks teach "what is true, is what is true for you" — but they still go around making pretty strong claims that what is true for Tom Cruise et al. is relevant to the rest of the population, too.
