I tend to agree with your statement as well, Erin. It has been my experience that many of my colleagues with no formal education lack the expert understanding of how things work behind the scenes. Furthermore, understanding how to run tools is great for the pen-tester but of no value to the community. In other words, a true expert will always try to improve through innovation -- by designing better tools or improving the current ones, something that can only be achieved with thorough comprehension of the fundamentals and/or theory. Just my .02 cents.
