Yes but the difference here, argumentatively, is that for soft-intelligence such as language and facts determining what is absolutely correct can be much harder and people's instinct for what is correct can be very off base.

Conversely, we understand numbers, units etc. enough. But, I suppose the analogy also works in a different way: most people don't understand quadratic equations anymore, or advanced proofs, but most people also don't try to use a calculator for that normally.

Conversely, we often need assistance and look up soft-intelligence information and rely on accuracy, while most citizens lack the knowledge necessary to easily identify a problem with the answer.

So, sort of two sides to the same coin about human fallibility and reliance on knowledge-based tools.
