Knowledge itself is a bias against things you don't know.

Thanks for informing me that my understanding of the word differs from yours. Unfortunately, that information on its own is not very useful to me.

Would you care to also tell me your understanding of the word, so I can figure out whether I need to change my understanding or not?

You are entitled to have your own opinion on this.
