Nope, that's why it's a "dirty little secret."

... so how do you know, and why should I believe you?

The most valuable information never comes with a citation. Thus the derogatory term "book smart."

It's easy to say your information is true when you say I can't look at the information and see if it's true. Not a tenable position, sir.

I didn't say "the most accurate information."

Upvoted this. Not all cases require a rush for citations to support what you're saying.
