I don't know if encounters with an unexpected ignorance really induce quite such extreme overconfidence, but I have observed that children can be made to feel very expert in things by explaining them to smaller children, so it's probably a dangerous psychological phenomenon with its own name somewhere.
And also, Ann, didn't you know that the Archangel Raphael was the angel of healing, which was why he felt such intense doubt about whether it was necessary for people and/or children to suffer for the ineffable plan? And that really it was therefore his extraordinary kindness and empathy that caused him to fall, when he actually didn't know anything was wrong whatsoever with wanting answers, which was all he did until suddenly he was being boiled in sulphur and we're not quite sure how Lucifer and the boys came into it but whatever? And that in fact, throughout his time on earth, Crowley has never caused anybody pain or suffering on purpose, and has been sneaking around helping and healing people, saving children because that's exactly the same as his line 'Not the KIDS?', and crying emo tears when he's alone because he just feels so much pain for the world and the humans?
