I don’t think there’s value in doing this, unless the second opinion disagrees with the original model. It’s not hard to find a second “expert” to agree with just about anything, if you look hard enough.
The number of people who agree with something tells you, as a rational person, practically nothing - it reminds me of the absurd compilation argument “One Hundred Authors Against Einstein”: https://archive.org/details/HundertAutorenGegenEinstein/mode/2up https://archive.org/details/HundertAutorenGegenEinstein/mode...
Einstein’s famous reply: “If I were wrong, then one would have been enough!”
