Why this dilemma matters
This is a right-vs-right question: every choice respects one value while sacrificing another. Choosing “Recant publicly — truth matters more than the identity you built around being right” prioritises the cleaner moral line; choosing “Stay silent — your work still helps people, and one error doesn't erase that value” gives more weight to the smaller real-world cost.
Worth asking yourself
- What cost are you more willing to accept?
- Which value should matter more here?
