You got it. It takes intelligence to entertain both sides of an argument, grasp and appreciate the nuance of the situation and then come to a sensible conclusion, which is often "I don't know, I'll need to learn more to decide." And it takes intellectual honesty to admit when our preconceptions need to be tossed and upgraded to a more expansive, more accurate worldview, which is the essense of intelligence. That's why Dunning & Kruger's work is so damned important: It showed that the least capable are the most confident. |

Realistically, you can entertain both sides of an argument and come to the conclusion that one side is wrong.
