> It feels like loving doing things I do badly. If false confidence gives you the ability to learn, the Dunning-Kruger effect isn't so bad after all.

  I do things badly and am self aware enough to know it. Dunning-Kruger would require a lack of that self-awareness and in its place a belief that I had expertise.

    It would be odd to say you have a thorough understanding of what you're doing badly though, no?

      Being aware of your unknown unknowns is the opposite of the Dunning-Kruger effect, though. That would be denying their existence.
