It would indeed. In fact I have often had a change of opinion after engaging in debate, and one curious aspect of politics is the idea that changing ones mind (the fabled U-turn) or admitting mistakes had been made is seen as such a bad thing that the only course of action left is to carry on regardless.
The myth that any individual or organisation is infallible or that circumstances never arise that could not have previously been known or planned for is madness.
BT - VM - TT - there's no need to carry on regardless!
