Had a young engineer try to bull shit my old boss one time about storage
batteries for industrial trucks.  Young engineer didn't know that the "dumb
old boss" was a ex navy sub engineering officer (diesel-electric).  Kid
couldn't sit down for a month.  While it wasn't all electronics it was hard
to fool an old sub type on battery chargers.
