No, he probably is right. But as I have stated somewhere else, perhaps the Limiter was working (though badly) at that point and scrambled signals *were* feeding into his brain. But then, when Gan wakes up with no headache, and then starts strangling Cally, this means that the limiter has temporarily stopped working altogether. Whatever it was doing before.
And as I've stated elsewhere, this is not guaranteed. You don't know what it's doing; you only know that at some point in the past, it started to malfunction. From then on, to the point where an expert in the field declares that it's fixed, all bets are off.
A navigation system that works gets you from A to B. A navigation system that ceases to function at all may leave you stranded at A, or leave you heading towards B, with no way of stopping when you get there. A navigation system that is operating, but incorrectly, might be heading towards Q, while claiming it's going towards F. Or it might be heading for C, which is in the same direction as B, but not the same location. Or it might make coffee.
They're all possible, as are your possibilities of infering Gan's history, but some are more likely than others. All you *can* say, reliably, is that you can't trust what's going on in there, because there's an unknown factor that *might* be influencing things in an unpredictable manner.
