Or it’s about how well the belief is justified, not “strength” of the belief, or number of the believers. Crazy beliefs or those based on false assumptions would have no impact in that case. And justified true beliefs can’t disagree (at their level of specificity).
Then how is it that Harry and Bellatrix had the experience with Dementors that they did? Harry’s beliefs were well-justified, but he still had to KO Bellatrix before it worked.
And of course justified beliefs can disagree. As a purely trivial matter, true beliefs cannot disagree, so you are technically correct there, but well-justified beliefs can differ if the participants have different evidence. Sharing evidence will remove the disagreement(assuming that all evidence is in a mathematical form that cannot be disagreed upon, of course), but that isn’t always possible.
