Some of them most certainly did make stuff up. Ego prevents many people from admitting that they don't know something.

I also interacted with some who wouldn't even admit to being wrong when they were confronted with facts. So I don't know that I would say they catch on either.

I feel most won’t risk it. It’s less embarrassing to say you don’t know than to be wrong.
