I don't think Dan quite meant it like that? Some people could have 10 years of racing history and still not understand how their car works, especially if someone else sets it up for them all the time. I think Dan was referring more generally to some of the advice offered by people who maybe don't fully understand what they are talking about.
Perhaps a lot of the information presented on here is opinion based, everyone does things a little differently, that doesn't necesserily mean there is a right or wrong way of doing things.
I for example would say it's perfectly alright to charge my one pack of cells immediately after finishing my race, therefore I know it's ready for the next run, many racers would probably be shocked at this suggestion (for whatever reason).
Obviously if someone came and gave advice saying totally and utterly the wrong thing, something potentially dangerous or costly, then there are plenty of experienced and knowledgeable people on here who can set them right.
But indeed the best thing to do is to support and advise those people who don't quite fully understand what they are talking about (like me! I'm going to shut up now and stop pretending to know what I'm on about).
