People lacking knowledge suffer a double curse

People lacking knowledge and skill in certain areas suffer a double curse. 

  1. They make mistakes and reach poor decisions
  2. Those same knowledge gaps prevent them from noticing their errors. 

In other words, poor performers won't notice how bad they are doing. For example,  a study showed that 25% of teams in a college debate tournament lost nearly four out of every five matches, but thought they were winning almost 60%.
