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.
