Disclosure: I'm a physicist (by training/education).
-------------------------------------------------------
Disclosure: I studied physics in Heidelberg, Germany. My brother too and worked at the highly reputable Max Planck Institute there.

There's a difference between being a physicist and "studying Physics" (which sounds a bit similar to "I did my research").

Either way, one's past experience does not guarantee present or future performance (appeal to authority fallacy?.

Linus Pauling was a brilliant scientist who went off the rails, duping a lot of folks into believing high dose Vitamin C could cure cancer, among other nonsense.
