Well, ideally one would want us to be smart enough to not automatically overvalue hidden information or undervalue availible information. :)
Also, I’m reminded of a bit from the Discworld book Thief of Time. Kaos says to Sweeper something to the effect of ”...You know all the hidden wisdoms. No, more than that. I suspect you are even wiser. You know the explicit wisdoms, the knowledge hidden in plain sight and ignored by most as they seek hidden knowledge.”
