one downside of formal education is it tends to teach you there are answers to things.

before I was properly educated I relied more on gut and whatever made sense from my own life experience. that’s all I had and needed. 

after university I became skeptical of my experience and a believer in reproducible science which is often contradicting to n=1 personal experience.

result is more uncertainty: “is this the correct choice? Do I know enough to choose this? what unknown unknowns are there?”.
