Don't hold your breath. HN is full of people with credentials, and people with credentials tend to push credentialism, and that means deferring to the experts on other fields so that others will defer to one in one's field of expertise.

Mike Shapiro at Sun was fond of telling us that "we're not specialists -- we're generalists who can specialize as needed". I think that is a good attitude in general. It doesn't mean we get to weigh in on things we know nothing about, but it does mean we get to do critical thinking and that we can self-educate in order to form opinions when necessary.
