It's their mistake; the onus should not be on the unqualified consumer to have the knowledge of the professional, regardless of the part.
A broad sweeping statement like that is very problematic.

I once bought a house that about a year later I decided I didn't like the price ... do I get to go back and get a refund? Consumers have responsibility, and it's lazy and irresponsible to just think businesses or any kind of seller has to completely hold a buyers hand through everything.

The fact that in any case if a buyer is 'unqualified' is the buyers problem and fault, not the sellers.
