Also there is this far too common thing that experts in one field suddenly think they are experts in everything. I saw some of the most absurd takes from engineers, how this person can be so smart and so dumb at the same time? I think they get hyper confident in their own "gut feeling" which in their field is supported by years of experience and all the knowledge in the world but in other fields it is just their anecdotal experience and bias.
