Yes indeed. A mark of professionalism is in fact humility in face of what we don't know and clear criteria for knowledge. A simple study of knowledge and knowing and what it means benefits most people. As we compartmentalise things as "known" by very different criteria. One persons knows something with the same evidence that brings another only to suspect that same thing or to see it as a likely hypothesis.
