And we're honing in on the pain point of that aspect of life. I'm not having a revelation here, I'm lamenting the fact with my peers on a site dedicated to technology/engineering.
I think what you're describing isn't inexperience or immaturity; its idealism in the idea that competent people should hold power.
The world may not work like that, but it isn't immature to fight for it.
What you're describing is a universal aspect of life. From parents, to teachers, to managers all the way back to chieftains of prehistoric tribes there have been power differentials between people and the more competent person has not always been the more powerful.
