I don't know everything there is to know about aviation inside and out.
Nobody does. What I think is disturbing are those out there who THINK
they know everything inside and out. They are the ones you look out
for.

Amen!

And ridiculing people for asking a question, even one that seems "dumb"
(because you already know the answer) helps dissuade people from asking
those questions.

There are lots of CFIs who teach incorrect stuff because they didn't
know it, didn't know they didn't know it, and thought they knew it.
Being open to CFIs asking questions is one way to reduce these numbers.
