I see this with course creators as well. I reported dozens of errors in a particular corse and the creator was literally annoyed at me.

If you can't do, teach. If you can't teach, write an online course. If you can't write an online course, teach phys ed.
This kind of narrative stops aspiring teachers to go in the domain of education.

Teachers play such an important rule. They have to swallow the pill that the common narrative is that cause they didn’t do whatever they are teaching hence they teach

Anyone who is less than 100% confident that they can in fact “do” should not be teaching. If your ego is that fragile you’re not going to last, whether because students don’t worship you, or because management ask you to do something differently.
