Touché and point taken I feel are pretty close.

I was mistaken. Clearly I was wrong.

“Touché” can be used when someone makes a point that disproves or weakens one’s own stance.

I always liked “Duly noted” (if the context is that someone is correcting you). Sounds so proper lol

I think you're right. (And say you're a little slower than the other words) My bad, thanks. Oh really? Cool, thanks. Oh I didn't know that, thanks.

What everyone is saying ("touchè", "point taken", etc.) seems more like what you would say for "you make a good point" and not "I repectfully acknowledge I was wrong." which are two very different things.

You're right. Oh, I get it, now. I see your point. I was mistaken. It turns out that I was, in fact, wrong on this point.

The French say "je mourrai moins bête", which means "I will die less stupid".   I love this one

Touché is French, but it has worked its way into anglophone usage.

So many people have an aversion to saying "you're right" More people ought to do it
