That's a very big assumption, wouldn't you agree? I agree with what you're saying, but you have to be practical. Verifying things rather than just assuming things based on superficial observation is important. But we simply don't have time to verify everything, as your post demonstrates. So sure, encourage people to verify things instead of spouting off hot air. But realize that superficiality is a necessary evil. Sometimes, you just need to make an inference off of a few observations, and that's ok as long as you realize the inherent limitations of superficiality.
