Yes, Being willing to swallow the bullet does not mean you are not, in fact, being very stupid indeed. Extrapolating beyond one’s knowledge in this manner is using one’s own ignorance as data. (Not that any agent can avoid judgement under uncertainty, but it’s why this sort of extreme extrapolation can lead to crazy results.) Consistency is useful, but not a terminal value.
