During an academic science-fiction convention, somebody got up to
speak and waxed lyical on a piece Isaac Asimov had written, unaware
that he was in the audience.  Only naturally, he got it dead wrong,
and Asimov approached him after his speech and told him so.

At this point, the professor responded: "Just because you wrote a
story, why does that make you think you know anything about it?"

So your point, while well-taken, is not a given :-)

(Asimov wrote "The Immortal Bard" based on this incident)
