There are a few people here on LessWrong whom I think are great rationalists, in an absolute sense; but who AFAIK have never acknowledged being caught in a mistake. That indicates something wrong.

I'd agree with that assessment.

You get no credit for changing your mind by realizing your error yourself

But I give plenty of credit for that. :)
