MIT this and Psychology that don't change the fact that the world is made of a web of abstraction of trust. It is not possible for any individual to have the time or competence to evaluate the trustworthiness of every single entity they rely on in day to day life. If I employed a plumber and she did a bad job because she used a tool wrongly or used the wrong pipe fitting, will it be reasonable for the world to expect me to know the intricacies of plumbing (where do I learn them? How do, I, in turn, trust that source of information, and ad infinitum)? Yes, it's good to do some basic due diligence for things that affect our lives, but there's a reason high-trust societies are much nicer to live in.
