Gee, I hope not. May I suggest that confidence is
bliss. That confidence is best achieved from some
level of personal understanding . . . but we cannot
all be experts at everything. So at some point, we
move forward based on observations of outcome for
repeatable experiments.
I don't buy Firestone tires because this is the
only brand of tire that I've personally experienced
two catastrophic failures at turnpike speeds. Admittedly,
both experiences were 30+ years ago . . . but at some
time later, there was a big recall of Firestones on
Ford products.
This doesn't mean all Firestones are bad, but
personal experience combined with observed successes
by other folk suggests that I'm well advised to
patronize alternative brands. Now, I don't know squat
about how either good tires or bad tires are assembled
and it would not be a good use of my $time$ to look into
the details of the matter.
I'll suggest that your $time$ is best invested in
exploitation of repeatable experiments . . . whether
in TC or OBAM aircraft. This is how ignorance is
reduced to a non-hazardous condition.

Good choice. It will perform as advertised.
