I think it happens because of fear. Fear to be considered weaker if they recognise a mistake, fear to lack their identity if they change their attachment to their political party, religion beliefs, their opinion about a whatever topic...
Yep, that is all very true. Unfortunately, I've run across many narcissists in my life. The underlying issue is extreme insecurity and an extreme feeling of inferiority, hence the overly inflated ego and the inability to accept or acknowledge any wrongdoings on their part. The person I am talking about fits the bill to a T.
