Taking it as Bayesian evidence: arguably rational, although it's so small your brain might round it up just to keep track of it, so it's risky; and it may actually be negative (because psychopaths might be less likely to tell you something that might give them away.)

Worrying about said evidence: definitely irrational. Understandable, of course, with the low sanity waterline and all...
