Because if you're wrong about one thing, you must be wrong about everything!

It's especially bad because of the profit motive and needlessly doing it so young before consent can be given IMO. I can't accuse people in this position of not being sufficiently trusting.

This applies to other modern medical procedures as well.

How often are the experts wrong though?

I think a better question might be:

Are they really experts?

Experts at what, exactly?

I've been asking these same questions for a long time.

But I think only certain experts are allowed to be trusted.

And the experts to be trusted are determined by people who are not experts.

It's confusing.

It's like there needs to be an expert on experts. But then we would need an expert on expert on experts to know which expert on experts to trust.

So it's pretty confusing to me.
