Example

Opinions on shape of earth differ. Both sides once had a point. Early round earth advocates made claims unsupported by solid data and definitely over-estimated the curvature of the Earth. Christopher Columbus thought that China was as close to Europe as America really is USA. However evidence, which became available long after both sides made their good points, should lead reasonable people to agree that the earth is round.
