(Hyper)specialists have a hard time understanding context outside their narrow domains, and filtering the relevance of their own specialization to a situation. I think the author/post neglects the most important reason for valuing generalists and learning from them. That seems like a pretty normal reaction for someone with limited attention and study resources? Am I missing something? yeah, then I find myself more inclined to read others’ opinions, more confident than my own, and defer to trusting them unless I have a strong instinct otherwise. I know from my own experience that even as someone who has a tendency to challenge, I find myself constrained by my lack of experience on many subjects, my estimation of the time involved to become conversant, and my general feeling of limited time and energy. particularly accepting of critical feedback along some lines but biased against other kinds of critical feedback Especially in a forum where existing contributions are: And one can at least infer that gaining that confidence may involve significant time and effort. Unless you have high confidence in your ability to grasp the subject, this can be considerably daunting to someone who isn’t blessed with high confidence generally. A little preparation and basic work-study and critical thinking skills is all a post needs, along with something you really want to say and is actually worth saying, of course.
