My boss (in the research lab where I worked) was one step higher. He was (nominally) a nuclear physicist, but, by virtue of being boss, he knew everything. In his own words, he needed just five minutes to understand everything about a Nobel-prize winning work in biochemistry. he was also a science philosopher, expert on Hindu scriptures and mythology, folklore, ethics, art, music, history, etc.
The "Boss Knows Everything" syndrome pervades every sphere of human activity here. Making a big jump right to the top of the hierarchy, the late Morarji Desai, one time Prime Minister used give his expert advice on a variety of subjects, like health, medicine, nutrition, and how to shave oneself without using soap or lather.

PHB must have once worked for the U.S. Department of Labor. They seem to think anyone can be retrained rather quickly.

Sorry, but I decided over breakfast to become a brain surgeon. I plan to spend a whole day learning about it. Would you like to be my first patient. (After all, in your case, what harm could it do?)
