Well no, not exactly. A person can bend the law or break it, but he can't claim that his version of the law is the real one because the real one is documented.
With oral law someone can claim it's the real law/rule and no-one else can prove that it isn't. So even if the rest of the community knows that this one person is wrong, it can and will still cause confusion.
