Yes, it's important to note that this is not a 100% guarantee of authentic communication - more like 95-97%, but based on years of experience, it works very well.
As I understand it, it's a gamble for the STS. If they believe that by steering you astray they can cause enough distress to offset the damage to their polarity, they will do it. But it is rare, from which I deduce that it's a sizable hit for them.
As always, using discernment is advisable. But, in my experience, discernment is helpful after the message is received (otherwise, too much conscious mind interference and doubt takes place and blocks communication). On the other hand, asking for "that is the truth" can be readily done during the channeling process.
