I care about self-consistency because an inconsistent self is very strong evidence that I'm doing something wrong.
It's not very likely that if I take the minimum steps to make the evidence of the error go away, I will make the error go away.
The general case of "find a self-inconsistency, make the minimum change to remove it" is not error-correcting.
