Another logic issue is the fallacy that the truth is a compromise between two opposite positions. Examples of this issue are statements like I consider the fact that it is yellow a (weak) confirmation that the fruit is a lemon or it is a hint that it is a banana but the evidence for this is quite thin, so I am ready to change my mind on this point. Taking the middle ground of two positions does not always lead to the truth.
