Nope. An expert would be able to skim it, recognize the path of reasoning as something he's seen a before, and narrow down on the error quickly. Reasoning about something by how many "waves in the community" it has made is a deference of personal judgement to the social network an individual is embedded in, which is a useful shortcut when you are not an expert relative to your peers, but dangerous set of mind to operate in for any lengthy amount of time, as it can be the basis of cults and the like.
