In personal discussions, people of such credentials confirmed that they also just "trust the [academic] process" and "don't have time" to check the foundations of their convictions. And that they didn't know, but "there surely was someone specialized" who does.

More clearly, in this context, saying you trust your mate is equal to saying you trust your recorder that is replaying the cassette that someone happened to have left in it.
