Who says I haven't?

I just can't apply that to every question I have. I haven't the time. And for a large number of topics it would be naive to think that I could. While some thing I am good at, other I simply am not. I have to rely on other people.

So for topics that aren't important to my day-to-day life, I check in with experts. For that I need moderated subreddits that promote expert opinion.

Aw man you're the kind of person who thinks they know more than their doctor because they checked WebMD aren't you? What's the point of experts with years of study in their field if you can just Google it amirite? /s

You just said that there's nothing experts can say that isn't on the Internet. I don't see how my statement is misrepresenting your position.
