When we go to listen to a doctor or lawyer, do we do so because we know the reality inside a doctor's head, or because the doctor relates to the rest of society through high credibility? To what degree does being a doctor affect your relations with the rest of society?

If a doctor knows they're good enough, is that good enough?

Why not both? \0/

Obviously every person has their own personal view of themselves and everyone also has their view of other people. Which one you call "identity" is pedantry.

This multi-universe of identities is allowed. Through interactions they may change - or they may not. They are used to inform our decision making in either sense.

They are all allowed to exist simultaneously - whichever one you value more.
