Crowdsourcing is when, instead of getting an expert's opinion, you just ask whoever happens to be in the room. Sometimes this works out great, depending mostly on the size of the room.
One of my favorite films, F for Fake, is Orson Welles' lament over the pure chicanery of the "art expert." Fakery, something he knows something about. I admire his distrust of experts in general but that's not to discount knowledge, real study and the ability to teach. Nor wisdom, nor faith. These must matter, otherwise we abandon our discourse for triviality, surface, fetish, whatever, lol ; )
Facts exist. Not everything is a matter of opinion. Srsly, look into it.
