Based on my own experience with being endorsed for random things, it seems to be pretty common for people to just keep banging that button to 'help' out their friends with a bent towards just giving them the benefit of the doubt that they must know whatever the topic is if linkedin is suggesting they do in the first place (and it is tangentially related to their industry).
