I think Einstein is a good example of both bending with the wind (when he came up with relativity), and of not bending with the wind (when he refused to accept quantum mechanics).
By "bending with the wind" I don't mean "bending with public opinion". I mean not being emotionally attached to your views.
In a PD, everyone having accurate information about the payoff matrix leads to a worse outcome for everyone, than some false payoff matrices you could misinform them with. That is the point.
