Being wrong is correlated with using an authority heuristic. If you encounter someone who you’re sure is wrong, consider using an authoritative source who agrees with you. Attempt to establish that source’s authoritativeness before you reveal that source agrees with you.
Worst case scenario, that other person still disagrees, but you only pay for “listening to the wrong guy”, which I expect (confidence 95%) is less expensive in the median case.
