one with vast amounts of experience may understate and diminish their experience that could be incredible insight for newcomers to read
this would work when one could holistically understand all perspectives involved

I don't know... the best teachers are the ones who are so enthusiastic about their experiences, that they can't help but teach even when they don't necessarily intend to do so. They're also the ones who know things that may never otherwise make it into text.
I can't completely disagree with your statement, particularly for an impassioned learner, but that experience misses out on part of the beauty of life and the way humans share and compound knowledge.
absolutely agree with you on the enthusiasm part, as it plays a massive part in teaching the next person
creatives often are the most self-critical people you're gonna find, therefore they often undermine their experiences etc.
That probably applies in most creative endeavors, but with writing, all of that self-criticism comes at the moment of publishing to the public. It takes humility to tap that last button. Generated text might create a expression of a painter's technique, but it's going to lack his own representation of how a brush feels in his hand. For me, that's the stuff that separates good writing from mediocre writing, which is what further drives my own curiosity. The passion & humility to share experience holds the highest value for me... but I'm a bit of a humanist, in general. 😅
