I'd put it this way: It's fine to trust experts, but it's stupid to hold a differing view in contempt when you understand neither the official position nor the dissenting one.
None of us have time to learn everything, so we rely on heuristics. If your heuristic is to just trust the official position, that's fine, but have some humility about it.
Yeah, that's good.
