So, if you find a doctor for example, in their 40s/50s, and you give them an experiment (with all the statistical parameters) and you ask them to test/reject the null hypothesis, you think they'll be able to do so?
Degrees say "you ARE X", they, by extension, might INFER that you KNOW the Skills X, Y, Z that are part of the study plan. But that's not granted. Having a degree doesn't mean you have the skills. You might have forgotten, you might have cheated, etc.
Thesting for the skill in particular is the only way.
