Arguably, if this 'structure' is so flimsy, it is not knowledge. This house of cards is simply faux knowledge, built on assumptions and misunderstandings. Once you truly understand something, to the degree that you do, it is solid. If we talk about programming, which stems from math and logic... it is a solid as it gets, perhaps a diamond castle. Unfortunately I've come to the realization that software companies don't really appreciate this fact, and invest no effort in making logically correct systems. Therefore engineers spend a lot of their time navigating this flimsy structure that often falls apart because the engineers that came before had to make assumptions to finish things quickly because of deadlines and all that.
