I don't disagree. My two examples were people who not only did not collaborate, but actively resented the knowledge offered from experts different fields.
I do think that past successful collaboration can lead to a bias though. As a programmer I've solved problems for a variety of disparate industries and fields. I know just enough to know I'm vastly ignorant of those fields save for a little part that I helped solve problems for. But I've seen colleagues go the opposite route.

When criticized by people outside the field the reaction seems to be either to ignore or to explain.
Lately I've been watching videos tangential to conspiracies. Too many choose defensiveness when the truth is easier and more interesting.
