This is the issue. Experts effectively speak in another language than the rest of us, and the dummies/(honestly mostly) intentionally disengenuous among us use that to disqualify experts.

Experts know there's a margin of error. Dummies are easily convinced by the intentionally disengenuous that the margin of error accounted for means it's all bullshit.
