Here's the original quote:
"I'd almost rather have it [the content of docs] be 
consistent and be wrong, than to have documents that aren't 
consistent."

Almost rather be consistent and wrong. The attitude is clear. This person is
willing to spend time to ensure consistency at the expense of correct
content. 

What a joke.
