But we must do our best to lessen bias

Agreed. even the most well meaning of us are subject to that reality. Whether it's believing our child is the prettiest or the smartest or most talented, to the fact that our idea is better than everyone else's, to having it effect our judgement when it comes to things which we're passionate about.

It's conformation bias, and in most cases we try and adjust for it.

In this case, we should be doing that by trying to take any and all potential bias out of the system. Instead, we seem to be pretending that in OUR case (the SEC that is) this very real phenomenon does not come into play.
