I would argue that a decent portion of humans are usually ok with admitting they don't know something
Unless they are in a situation where they will be punished for not knowing
My favorite doctor claimed he didn't know something and at first I was thinking "Man that's weird" but then I thought about all the times I've personally had or heard stories of doctors that bullshited their way into something like how I couldn't possibly be diagnosed with ADHD at 18
