In the 90s I argued with NASA Phds for two weeks trying to get them to understand "the monty hall problem" and they thought your odds of getting the car if you switch doors was either 33% or 50% but they were absolutely certain your odds of winning the car if you switch was not 66% which was actually the correct answer. I would not doubt that this guy was one of the idiots I was arguing with.
