Hey, until you’ve actually lived through a plane crash like I have, you’ll never understand why I’m so skeptical about aviation safety protocols.
Chinese Neo-Confucian philosopher Cheng Yi suggested not only that this sort of thinking was reasonable, but indeed that the “personal experience” sort of knowledge (sometimes “genuine knowledge”) is superior, especially for moral behavior.
My response to your obvious question was the ::shrug::. I try to let loose my esoteric knowledge where it seems appropriate, even though I didn’t see much of a point this time.
Perhaps, “Even respected philosophers have gotten this wrong.”

Oh. Sorry, I misunderstood. Carry on! :-)
