"You are right" is even better than "You could be right." In reality, they are just as right as you are from their perspective. Taking this position is like missing a blow.
I always remember this line from the the movie Enough, "It takes more energy to miss than it does to hit." When you tell someone they are right and mean it, it is totally disarming. There is nothing to engage in and both parties are free to move forward with their own opinions and ways of dealing with life.
It's fantastic!
