Ok...but you do realise there due to behavioural biases, group dynamics and weaknesses in decision making processes, its still possible to end up seeing things more clearly from the outside than from the inside? Phenomenon like group think are real. As are preconceived biases.
People on the inside have a huge informational advantage - no doubt. But they still end up making major unforced errors from time to time. And its mostly because while more data is generally better, at the end of the day its how you assess the data that matters most.
So it is possible to come to a better decision with less information if your ability to focus on what matters is better. Or your decision making process is better. Or your analysis is better. Or because you have less biases. Or because you're unaffected by group think.
