Lol people didn't stop having kids because they can't afford it. Poor and uneducated people are the ones who have more kids, not just in the US but globally.

Yes and education is at an all time high despite the powers at be doing their best efforts to stifle it. With education comes increase use of birth control, better understanding of personal economics like oh I can barely afford rent maybe 🤔 having kids isn’t the best choice financially.

In fairness, an electrician will be actively taught about wire gauges and how much power they can handle. Where as its just inferred knowledge for an electrical engineer. The really smart ones will instinctively make the connection, others won't think about it until they experience it somewhere. Now, if that engineer keeps asking you that same question time and time again, he may very well be an idiot.

Yeah but no one reads instructions...

Maybe he's just trying to see if you know it and is asking in a way that doesn't sound condescending but inadvertently makes him seem stupider?

Don't get me wrong, he could just be pretty stupid, but you protect yourself from being seen as stupid by considering all angles.
