Perhaps, but you could also say that if it was that widely discussed and 
still not changed that it was for a *good* reason, perhaps the reason 
may change over time but at this moment it is still a good reason.

Or you can argue that even when an argument is repeated indefinitely it 
doesn't make it suddenly right.
