The idea that some students know (for instance) adders well enough to teach newer students is not new, not unique to ORE, and not a problem.
Very true; I agree. With the incompetence I was referencing in particular this post, but that's probably not relevant anymore.
The only point I was trying to make is that we don't want students coming out with anything less than optimal understanding of a subject - for instance, adders. Important introductory concepts like these require a decent amount of preliminary understanding, and at the time of posting this I just had seen so many poorly delivered student to student lessons that I at least wanted to spark a discussion. It's certainly not a priority and there's probably no solution, but misunderstandings are bad and if a student does teach a lesson they should at least make sure to do it correctly.
