Like Sun Tzu said: it's best to win without fighting. In my case whenever I see this kind of error message (ie discrepancy between rows added deleted etc).. I don't even debug anything.. I simply avoid making that extra call where I reload the rows etc.. that's 99% of the cases where this error happens.

This is a common scenario where this bug happens: I have a UINavigationController and it has a UITableView, when I click on a row it pushes a new UITableView and so on. This error always happens to me when I pop the last UITableview and go back to the UITableView before it, at this point I make an unnecessary call to the loadIt function which basically inserts the rows and relaods the UITableView.

The reason this happens is because I erroneously place my loadIt function in viewDidAppear:animated rather than viewDidLoad. viewDidAppear:animated is called every time the UITableView is displayed, viewDidLoad is only called once.
