It is nice to hear this coming from an authority figure.

1. Who said it was on a hunch? You presume far too much. (I would just remind you that you posted my doctor's article to begin this thread).
2. How would your LLMDs rule-in or rule-out Lyme Disease?

What are his results? Do you have his statistics? Presumed omniscience is not very attractive.
Even the most brilliant of oncologists can't cure every case of cancer. I guess it depends on how results are measured. Many brilliant researchers in oncology haven't cured a single case.
> Being brilliant means absolutely nothing without the results that are supposed to go with it.
I am not a big fan of the terms "should" or "supposed to". An example would be, "You really should learn how you are supposed to write." I sometimes use the word "should", but only when I'm supposed to.
> You can't be brilliant and yet not produce brilliance.
Brilliance is in the eye of the beholder.
> just an opinion though
Yup.
