I agree.

It is better to be consistent but wrong, than inconsistent but correct.

Consistent and correct might seem ideal, but merely the fact that what is 'correct' is in the eye of the beholder most of the time, making it basically unobtainable.

But being consistent is at least something that is far less subjective.

An old boss of mine used to say "Consistent is better than better" and it's always stuck with me.

I don't see consistent and correct as separate. Consistent is correct, and correct is consistent.

Be sure to be consistent with each of the edge cases in order to be correct!
