If you are unfamiliar with a discipline then reliably:
1. It's more complex and messier than you think.
2. It requires more and different skills than you think.
3. The problems in it you think are hard are mostly easy.
4. The problems in it you think are easy are mostly hard.

When you don't know about an area, typically you don't have clear ideas about what is easy and what is hard. It happens that you think that something is hard even though it is easy, or at least that you equate the difficulties of things that are in reality very different.

5. The discipline boundary is not where you think it is.

Heck the discipline boundary... sometimes isn't, even. 😐

No doubt: The less you know about someone's job the easier it is.
