More often than not, the actual implementation is more complex than the theory that outlines it (think Turing Machine and today's computer). Mostly because the implementation is often the intersection of several theories spanning multiple domain. Going at a problem at a whole is trying to solve multiple equations with a lot of variables and it's an impossible task for most. Learning about all the domains is also a daunting tasks (and probably fruitless as you've explained it).

But knowing the involved domain and some basic knowledge is easy to do and more than enough to quickly know where to do a deep dive. Instead of relying on LLMs that are just giving plausible mashup on what was on their training data (which is not always truthful).
