Nope, this is human nature at it's most basic and obvious. Saving face by not admitting egregious mistakes and even lying about making or not making them even after the evidence is public and irrefutable is just the human ego defending itself. I'm starting to get past taht sort of childishness in my own life but having lived it for a long time I see it easily in others.
