Aren’t preconceptions not random by definition?

  I think he's suggesting that any given random set of preconceptions will itself be a 'sample' from the entire preconception-space, and therefor itself a preconception - just one that you didn't involve yourself in choosing.

  If your preconceptions were not random relative to the truth, wouldn't you be able to know how to correct them?
