It provides bad information when a best answer tag is given an incorrect answer - especially when the correct answer is actually given in the thread. Please provide a way to remove an incorrect answer tag.
I support your suggestion, although I feel that the "Best answer" is often not authoritative - quite often users choose their own thank-you post as the best answer - and since the best answer is chosen by the questioning user, my personal expectation is not that this tag denotes an objectively right answer. But people less active in the forum might think that.

I agree regarding answers that are explicitly incorrect. However, "Best Answer" is misleading. The forum only asks if an answer answered the question. It does not ask if it was the best answer.
Therefore, it is perfectly legitimate for responses to be marked as answers that the OP appreciated even though they are not the very best answer. Notice that even the forum software recognizes this. "Best Answer" changes to "Best Answers" when multiple responses are marked as having answered the question.
Perhaps MVPs should be more involved in marking correct answers, as they would often be better able to identify answers than users unfamiliar with the forums or the Logos software.
Would it be helpful to change the language from "Best Answer" to "Accepted Answer" ?
I like how "Best Answer" sounds, but perhaps that is a bit presumptuous. "Accepted Answer" would more accurately portray what is happening and would potentially be less misleading for new users searching for answers. I do like how "Answer" changes to plural when multiple answers are accepted. To MJ's point, it may be appropriate to grant MVPs the ability to reject accepted answers if a user accepts a clearly incorrect answer that could be misleading to other users within the community.
Community Managers and MVPs do have the ability to remove a comment from "Best Answers"
In the three dots, moderators with such select "Q&A" on any comment tagged as "Best Answer" to adjust the classification.

I usually take notes in Obsidian, my sermons, classes and notes are all in there in a beautiful system. I also use Zotero for adding citations and I prefer there as not only journals, but websites, books, blogs are all catalogued for years. However, after I bought Logos I have been wondering how would it be amazing if I…
After 30 years of upgrading my Logos for thousands of dollars, I refuse to be blackmailed into a subscription. now i search or use factbook and most of the resources are clickbait for a subscription trial. Why not offer a toggle for those who do not wish to purchase a subscription (AND NEVER WILL!!!) that removes the…
I have been puzzled by how little I use the Questions to Ask section despite it being a feature I strongly support. Part of the problem is that the questions appear in an unordered list. My first choice for seeing them would be by the four senses of scripture (a) what does it say (b) what am I to do [c] what am I to…
