I had some ideas, which I have not yet totally achieved
I wanted to think up something based on the guarantee that you can explain something, a term: not really like a domain of expertise...
rather in terms of being able to explain to someone else, be it at the same level or a less advanced level
Not a 100% guarantee without error... But like a bag of terms, and concepts, and relations someone is at ease with... that someone guarantees:
- 1. to be able to talk about
- 2. to detect false things on the subject.
It's no longer a question of title, phD, career or else...
It could avoid issues like a pair of experts in Petrology Geology publishing a few paper denying Climate Change, then they create the "Syposium of the Consensus that everyone agrees Petrology Geologist understand Climate more than Climatologist" <- true fact, I just changed the name #agnotology
I think it is related: playing with knowledge that is a little too far from one's zone of expertise (as an Engineer that's what I do every day wrt Science)
If you have feed back on the idea, don't hesitate
