there's a dangerous moment of moral hazard in learning about a topic where you know enough to phone it in and fool 90% of even informed people, but not enough to add any value... a lot of people settle into that zone. It's like the grifter side of imposter syndrome

It's related to, but not the same thing as, Dunning-Kruger effect. Happens at the same stage of the learning curve, but the D-K clueless typically don't realize there's more to know/learn and stall out due to lack of aptitude

Very interesting. In both there is self-awareness and an assessment of others' responses. A little bit can be a good thing (1st->humility, 2nd->boldness to start). Too much of 1st is paralyzing, too much of 2nd is scamming
