Lying, liars and society

[Robb]

I totally agree with your point, but this isn't what I meant at all. If B knows A was lying and keeps his mouth shut, then B definitely holds an information advantage over A, B possibly holds an information advantage over C-Z, and C-Z possibly hold an information advantage over A. When B opens his mouth, he gives up those advantages for himself and possibly gives up advantages for C-Z, etc.

So B should do what, build a small coalition of allies, say D - G, who agree with B and who then can together plot A's downfall? Or, possibly, exploit the information disadvantage of the lower part of alphabet soup? Or both?
