Perhaps not totally relevant; however, I have been involved in education
in one way or another for over 40 years. Everybody is ignorant about
something, sometime, somewhere, somehow. Even a genius over looks the
obvious occasionally.

I have come to the conclusion that it is better to assume the student
knows nothing and let him prove to me he does, than to take the attitude
that he/she already knows the subject. It saves me a lot of aggravation
and him (the student) embarrassment.

All in all, I fail to see what peccadillo the poster made. Even the
simplest problem for some can appear to be pointillistic to others.
