MODERATORS
I fixed this issue by being stupid and forgetful, so I never feel insulted if someone explains something I should know. In fact, I just assume I have wrong / incomplete / partially forgotten information even for the things I know I know, just in case.
I am also stubborn so I will, in most cases, learn enough to fix my issue or be knowledgeable enough to recognise an expert that can fix it for me or help me through.
Or maybe I’m just autistic and coping.
