Great article!  Thanks.

It reminds me of this:

   http://www.samharris.org/blog/item/the-path-of-honesty

In particular, this case:

'Harris: Let’s again invoke a deathbed scene, where the dying person asks, “Did
you ever cheat on me in our marriage?” Let’s say it’s a wife asking her husband.
The truthful answer is that he did cheat on her. However, the truth of their
relationship—now—is that this is completely irrelevant. And yet it is also true
that he took great pains to conceal this betrayal from her at one point, and he
has kept quiet about it ever since. What good could come from telling the truth
in that situation?'
