quite possibly. strangers off the street sometimes demonstrate superior
insight than credentialed 'experts'. not typically, of course, but
sometimes.
an essential point is how much work i want to do to assess the
credibility of the comments from either source.
folks who rely on their credentials for credibility tend to lose it with
me. anyone who makes a point by clearly providing a solid basis for it
tends to gain it.
but i agree that clarity about the purpose of this thread would be
helpful...
