The logic of many is that if you question a darling interpretation you deny inerrancy. This comes, at least in part, from Cornelius Van Til, whose books were treasured by many inerrantists.

"Over the years when people use the term “inerrancy” I have a habit of listening to see what they mean by its use rather than assume I know. Yes, it can mean without error or true but more often than not they are affirming some authority for a specific interpretation that is part of their tribe."

Yes - that explains the tribal part of the use of inerrancy. For instance, if I believe in egalitarianism, then the other tribe says I've lost inerrancy.
