I would think it's because It's basically impossible to convey nuance concisely.

in pretty much any medium of knowledge exhange. Except sitting down and having a long conversation about it.

In a podcast, for example, an expert only has an hour to share his expertise. Under the assumption that, on average, podcasts are an hour long and the expert only appears on one podcast episode.

So the person watching takes the certainty that an experts has earned and applies it to when they (the viewer) goes and opines in their network.

i tend to not talk with certainty when I don’t fully grasp a subject and I know I don’t fully grasp it when I only have 5-10 hours into it, that’s when most are at their peak of confidence with that subject.. but if they wouldn’t stop learning there, they’d see at the 24-36hr mark there’s a ton of complexity n their confidence diminishes as it should, then from there the real learning takes place in my honest opinion
