This statement is false, no matter who you substitute for X and Y:
"Whatever X can articulate, Y can articulate with a higher degree of understanding"
There is always something.

How is it quantifying "higher degree"?
With a sufficiently limited definition, I don't see how that can be false - almost ever.

Vague tweet on my part. It's quarter baked.
Let's say Y has a higher degree of understating than X, if Y is using X's conclusions as premises in a larger structure, to reach a conclusion that is beyond X.

Really, I'm trying to work out the shape of something I've seen both in myself, and in others. It's a sort of futility in the announcement of an idea.
"You already know this, but"
But often it's not spoken, but hiding in body language, or tone of voice.

Interesting. So this sounds a bit different than what you were proposing before.
You're essentially talking about how difficult it is to get traction with any qualified observation, or am I still missing something?
