Not exactly the same erroneous logic, but erroneous nevertheless. IE's happening to decide to judge something right wouldn't make that right anymore than chopping bits off the kilogram prototype would change the mass of a kilogram, even if Eliezer actually defined right in that way (isn't he refusing to define it that precisely?).
