So while telling the truth is maximally accurate relative to your epistemic state, concealment is deception by misguidance which is worse than the purest form of deception that is lying (falsehood). Bullshit however is not even wrong.
I don’t see how devil’s advocacy fits into this as I perceive it to be a temporary adjustment of someones mental angel to look back at one’s own position from a different point of view.
Interesting! Levels of epistemic accuracy:
(1) Truth
(2) Concealment
(3) Falsehood
(4) Bullshit (Not even wrong)
