I wrote "scientific community".
What I meant is the "relevant scientific community", it wasn't evident apparently.
Also the selection of the reviewers is just partially depends on the expertness already, several other aspects affect it quite a lot. Not to mention that why a certain selection should be the one why not an other, why not the relevant community chooses the reviewers then?
Just because not every details are fined carved the idea should not be dropped.
(I was participating in certain peer review processes where I was an almost outsider and very far from being an expert, I have little conviction that the current one works well)
