They have very strong incentives (ie earning money and building a career and having patients) to pretend to be certain. People don’t want to pay for honest but vague guesses.

Maybe? It’s a lot safer to be certain if you’re saying the same thing as the consensus. Then at worst you can say you had the same opinion as a lot of other providers.
