I don't think there's anything wrong with forming an opinion based on incomplete knowledge. The problem lies in refusing to change your opinion when exposed to additional knowledge, which is probably tied to not wanting to flipflop after making an initial statement that turned out to be inaccurate. There's also the problem of not actively educating yourself if you need to make a decision with significant consequences.
