I suspect (maybe because it suits me too) that the "busted lines" theory is a
myth.

If a GM sticks in false analysis firstly he's (she's wouldn't do such things)
got to get it past the expert editorial board, and then if his peers saw through
his falsity, they could point fingers at him & laugh, or prepare a trap for his
trap.

There are definitely mistakes made though, no question.  I can't recall the
line, it was another Petroff, but a "best theoretical novelty" in one issue
became a ??, six months later.
