On the other hand, if a man claims to win the lottery and hasn't, and then
the next week does win the lottery, he's still rich.

Or consider:
Bob's aunt tell him he should be Count of Whereever.  She gives him proof,
but mistakingly gave him her yak soup recipe.  The officials laugh Bob out
of town as a trickster.  Then she finds the real documents, and they are
legit, so he must be the Count.

My point being, once success occurs, he is the Count legally, and got there
as legally as any other Count.  How can you then say he is guilty of fraud
the week before, if he's been vindicated this week.  The success negates the
failure.
