I think most of us would agree that you don't have to remember trivia like how bubblesort is implemented or which timezone is Papua New Guinea or some specific syntax in a given language that you use thrice a year, but very few of us would fulfill your strawman that you literally don't have to know anything because you can just google it. The very meaning of this sort of trivia, like which element is #81 on the periodic table, is that it's not really a foundation for deeper general knowledge.

I'd be surprised if I met someone who saw themself in your comment.
