Reply to comment by DoubtfulOptimist in LPT: don't assume dishonesty or malice. You and others' lives will be much happier. by Alcoraiden

I trust that my car is going to get me from point A to point B.

Doesn't mean I don't still take it in for routine inspection.

I trust that my doctor isn't giving me bogus advice.

I still get a second opinion before getting a surgery.
