purposefully telling people incorrect information to make them learn even faster than by giving them correct information
For what it’s worth I think this is a poor characterization of the point (although I know it’s stated in so many words in the post). It’s not that you want to tell people things that you know are wrong so much as prod folks into engaging with their confusion, and a way to do that is to sometimes deliberately ask them to lean into that confusion by serving it up to them to be seen clearly. Done skillfully this doesn’t necessarily mean telling people things you believe to be incorrect (although making “mistakes” or telling folks there are deliberate inaccuracies in something to get them to look for it is a well-worn technique that can work well if done well), but it may mean doing things like working through the implications of what someone claims until you reach the point where it runs into trouble or asking them to do something that you know will force them to grapple with their misunderstanding because they wouldn’t be able to do it otherwise.
Yet it’s a fair point to call out that there’s a different between chaos and skillfully applied chaos to a purpose, and the former would look like what you seem to be concerned with while the latter is more the intention of the post as I read it.
