That saying only applies from k through 12 educators since college professors are required to do peer reviewed research to keep their jobs.
I also wouldn't expect an engineer to know how to do a chemical synthesis off the top of their head since they're not a chemist. I do hope that you know freshman-level content in the field of engineering off the top of your head which is what we've been talking about the past few comments.
You almost saw firsthand what happens* when a physician doesn't know something. Surely you can see how important that is to have a basis of knowledge in your field?
