What makes someone an expert? Its theoretical expertise that is being updated by constantly following specialized literature on particular topic combined with practical experience of interaction with object of expertise. There are a lot of freaks who call themselves experts for sake of marketing. But people who fulfill my mentioned criteria for being labeled as an expert are minority, unfortunately. You don't have to dig deep here, look at how many "experts" are educating people via mass media on this covid bullshit.
Expert card is used by government to persuade the sheeple. Who will not argue with authority. Even if this authority is full of shit.
