Not really what I am thinking about. The expert sees many possibilities in the field of expertise, to the extent that they see things that don't exist. The beginner doesn't have enough of a background to see all those possibilities. For example, the psychiatrist who treats a problem with his kid like it is a mental health issue when it is just the kid being a brat.
