Yeah, only if you don't know what's going on. Harris is out of his depth here. Not unintelligent (Harris is very intelligent), but he's just factually wrong in some of his criticisms of compatibilism. It's not his area after all, and Dennett is one of the world's foremost experts on free will, so one really shouldn't be surprised.
