Please, this is based on philosophy, not psychology. Though, I'm sure there are psychologic explainations to support what I'm saying.
真実(日本語) = Truth(English) = 真相(中文)
事実(日本語) = Fact(English) = 事實(中文)

Please also read more carefully. I am not challenging you from the very beginning. I'm focusing on the resultant psychological state with respect to knowledge, describing "what if I know more and more", while you're describing selective distortion and retention, talking about "what if I know more at a specific stage".
You simply talked about:
If people know more than what they need to know to make them stay in a desired state, and if it's due to the motivation of thinking "knowing more will be better", they will most probably jump into a undesired state which contradict with the thought that "knowing more will be better". Therefore I stated "Thought have power on altering the psychological state but no direct effect on improving it." in the previous post.
My argument is further more:
If people continue to know more and more at that undesired state, the psychological state may jump into another desired state. And this is stated in the last paragraph in the previous post.
In conclusion, knowing more may bring you to a desired or undesired psychological state (until your brain is incapable with change due to biological or physical limitation).
