It's not a flaw, but you certainly are making it sound like a requirement.

Besides, for some of the stuff some of us do, the technology isn't on Stack overflow.

I think for certain roles it absolutely is a requirement. If a web or backend software developer insisted that they refused to use Stack Overflow I don't think they'd make a good employee. It sounds like they're letting ideological hangups and tradition override practicality.
