I think it's more about specialization. An actual expert is specialized in a very small area. This is not as interesting as someone who claims to have unlocked the mysteries of the universe.
I think Jordan Peterson is a great example. He's an expert in a tiny research area related to alcoholism. But he lectures about chaos dragons, cleaning your room, etc. Which is going to make more fame/money for him?
