Honestly, this does not surprise me in the least. There are a lot of things that I think are pretty common knowledge, but then we listen to a radio program and they talk about it and my wife goes "oh, I didn't know that!" I'm looking at her with this look that apparently reads as me judging her, because I then get yelled at. Then I find out it is not as common knowledge when I talk to other people.
