Off course there has been nuisance GPWS warnings. Like any system it is prone to error or malfunction. But your first thought can’t be an ASSUMPTION of a GPWS error. Just like Fire warnings. You can’t assume it’s erroneous just because you don’t see fire or smell smoke.
Act on the warning, and only subsequently establish the veracity of the warning.
