But it doesn't have to be like that and it does make you wonder if Simon really knows what he's talking about.

Simon is in sales. Not research. Lol.

Now, I was in sales and marketing most of my career so I don’t denigrate it. But I don’t imagine the practitioners as necessarily or even needing to be experts. What they need to be is confident and, as you noted in the earlier post, Simon's nothing if not confident.
