Judges under pressure

A great idea: doing away with lay juries in complex cases that require specialist knowledge (that they don't have anyway) and replace with an expert panel.

Rocket science stuff.

Isn't that a good idea: but not for the judges. They might get tested on real technical points.

It's always easier to run rings around the ignorant who have a lack of knowledge. The unsophisticated! But an expert panel who actually know a thing or two and probably understand fine detail rather well.

Points of law can always be thrown in though.
