Since I'm objecting, I may as well clarify: I would appreciate it if people told me unimportant lies (that were corrected later) in order to test me for biases, as long as the results of the test were just between the two of us, and possibly also in other circumstances. (Let's say you have to pay me one dollar for each additional person who knows up to the first 20 people, with additional people being free after the first 20.)
