They made a miatake?
Nope I think it was purposeful deception.
This stuff was supposedly peer reviewed. Does it just get a free pass because it furthers the agenda and the consensus is to just lie when it sounds good?
Yes. While it is easy to find a lot of references to this on climate critics websites, there's very little to be found on more neutral sites...
Is it a conspiracy?

But I found one: https://phys.org/news/2018-11-climat...fic-error.html

Quote:
Co-author Ralph Keeling, climate scientist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, took full blame and thanked Lewis for alerting him to the mistake.
Yes, we read that in the critics papers too.
Quote:
"When we were confronted with his insight it became immediately clear there was an issue there," he said. "We're grateful to have it be pointed out quickly so that we could correct it quickly."
How nice. We know that. Carry on please.
Quote:
Keeling said they have since redone the calculations, finding the ocean is still likely warmer than the estimate used by the IPCC. However, that increase in heat has a larger range of probability than initially thought—between 10 percent and 70 percent, as other studies have already found.
Hey! That part was missing in the critics reports! Did they not like it?
Quote:
"Our error margins are too big now to really weigh in on the precise amount of warming that's going on in the ocean," Keeling said. "We really muffed the error margins."

So, the oceans DO in fact heat up faster than the IPCC previously reported.
But it is hard to tell by how much, harder than the report initially suggested.
