It's not the absence of information that tends to create difficulties; rather, it's when you firmly believe in something that is incorrect, which can lead to complications.
A real-world example can be found in the story of the Titanic, a British passenger liner that sank in the North Atlantic Ocean in 1912 after colliding with an iceberg. At the time, the Titanic was considered the largest and most luxurious ship ever built and was famously referred to as "unsinkable." This overconfidence in the ship's safety features led to several poor decisions, such as not providing enough lifeboats for all passengers and crew members on board.
The belief that the Titanic was unsinkable was incorrect, and when the ship struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage, it sank, causing the deaths of over 1,500 people. In this case, it was not the lack of knowledge about shipbuilding or navigation that led to the disaster, but the misplaced confidence in an incorrect assumption—that the Titanic was invulnerable to sinking. This overconfidence contributed to the inadequate safety measures and ultimately the tragic outcome.
