You are both right and wrong. Some professors do, but others don't. I have had more then one professor who, refused to regrade assignments due to their own error. It may seem a little silly, in concept, but often times it relates to needing to regrade the entire class or its a project, where the final grade stands as is and they don't want to make the page. In one instance, the professor did offer to, when my grade was in correctly assigned due to their error, but when regrading they ended at the same score finding other reasons to deduct points. So yes, in some cases, but its not as easy as you would think to get grades to be changed or re evaluated.
