Using your own analogy, If you didn't know what the tach on your bike
meant when it reached 7,000 rpm you would probably push it to 10,000
and blow something up, brag about it or both.

similarly, if you don't know what ohm's are do you really know how to
read a meter.  You can probably get by, but that is different than
knowing what you are doing
