The crux would seem to be: Define "corrupted". Exactly what one means by "corrupted" affects the amount of QC that constitutes "sufficient". From my POV, you "corrupted" the data by changing a middle name from Greitzner to Gerstell; from your POV, you "corrected" my error.
Then too, you can encounter things like, my sysclock says 9:12pm Thursday 28 Nov. I'll betcha anything you'd like, it isn't 9:xx pm Thursday 28 Nov in London at this very minute.
