The way I grasp it, knowlege has a transient quality and shouldn't be fatalistically tied to truth, because that would imply that people who deal with knowledge cannot err. But isn't infallibility a requirement of true knowledge?
Maybe I'm a brainlet.

You seem like you're just thinking about it too hard. What do you mean by true knowledge? I wouldn't say it's quite transient but it does and can change.

You're probably right. A more accurate description of that particular quality of knowledge I was describing is already provided in the excerpt:
>[...]knowledge must be resolute, excluding the possibility of being rightly converted, at a later stage, to a different view.
What I get from this passage is that the fallacy is rooted in not admiting that knowledge is bound by conditions that must be met in order for it to be true. These conditions can change, so knowledge isn't necessarily true all the time.

You seem like you get it, but you could even say that knowledge can never be true. The truth is like the Kantian thing-in-itself and knowledge is our phenomenal understanding of it.
