[hierophantical]

"domain experts" are often totally wrong and there is nothing new about this.

When our state of knowledge of the world changes , "domain experts" have the most to lose and our state of knowledge of the world is constantly changing.

Most domains also don't have the exactness of a programming language so are exposed to the same human processes as displayed in a middle school popularity contest.

The whole concept of the "domain expert" is really a modern superstition. An especially powerful superstition because it is the superstition of those who believe themselves beyond superstition.
