Some time ago I wrote an article called Sphere Of Ignorance in which I noted that the more we know, the more we know we don’t know. Conversely, the less we know, the more knowledgeable and competent we believe ourselves to be. This is a well-studied phenomenon and is perhaps best known (in part) as the Dunning-Kruger effect.
