I am extraordinarily confused by the number of non-PhD-havers in certain media outlets who proclaim with absolute certainty that among the PhD-having-intelligentsia, using the title 'Dr.' for PhDs (and Ed.Ds) is somehow gauche. It's not, that's stupid. 1/8
Here I mostly meant the level of work that goes in to producing such a thing. But in practice, you are right - dissertations tend to be hyper-specialized and are often addressing questions inside of a discipline that won't be obvious to folks looking in from the outside.

Certainly if there were specific defenses like "half of all dissertations have typos in the first three sentences, you're half blind by the time you finish", that would be relevant, and something I expect academics to have more familiarity with.

Or just "it's old and these things age poorly" (although 13 years doesn't seem that long ago for a 70 year old)
