Nah, but when an older, more experienced person empathically tells you that your idea is shit you might abandon it. After all when you try to keep an open mind and consider criticism of your ideas you are vulnerable to this kind of attack. Especially if you are low on self confidence.

True. A good way around this is to test ideas across multiple people. N=1 is just bad science.

And also asking: "but shit how, specifically?"

Not saying it's easy
