I wouldn’t confuse intuition with Dunning-Kruger — intuition is instinct, a gestalt of subconscious and things not consciously reasoned out that can often be correct (& sometimes incorrect.) The Dunning-Kruger effect is being highly incompetent at reason (or a thing) and not knowing it.At the extreme it’s concluding that you are great at rational thinking [or whatever] when you don’t understand the least concept about it.
