I feel like a lot of these types of adages come back to try to convince humans to do one thing: Be Wrong.
And I don't mean, deliberately make incorrect decisions, I mean, allow yourself to have made a mistake.
Some people get the reputation that they act like they know everything. You can even see some of those accusations creep up in various threads on this topic.
There are two major types of people who get that reputation. People who will never admit they're wrong and people who will admit they're wrong so fast, you don't even notice they've changed their stance.
The first type of people think the second type is just doing what they're doing. But no, the second type is more than willing to be wrong. They know that it's going to happen. It goes back to Socrates, knowing you know nothing. Accepting that your knowledge is incomplete. There are no stakes for being wrong if you don't put them up. The second type are also the type to not worry about laying blame about who is wrong. They just want to correct the mistake.
Be more concerned about what is wrong rather than who is wrong.
