Funny, you said a lot about accuracy in your original post but nothing about
consistency. Maybe I missed the point of the discussion when you decided to
change it without telling anyone?

Re-reading your original post, you seem to believe that neither approach is able
to find mistakes, which I think is already supremely wrong. Then you go on to
imply that one wronly indicated "mistake" is somehow better than a different,
wrongly indicated "mistake," which, I suppose, is where your recently proposed
consistency argument comes into play.
