That's certainly true of most people. Most people only listen long enough
to categorize whatever they hear and see into the accustomed boxes. It's
for that reason that fundamental advances in knowledge are frequently made
by young people who are still struggling to make sense of the basics in
a field. The "experts" already know what the answer should be and find
it almost impossible to acknowledge anything new.

Truly creative thinking in any field is rare.
