@simon I suspect that it's because these things are trained on the internet, which is 90% bad takes on things! Any kind of signifier that the answer is likely to be "expert" or "well considered" is thus likely to bias towards better answers.

I would expect: "I found this answer on a forum where only licensed medical doctors can post:" to have a positive effect.

And possibly, "Please don't reply unless you have personal experience with this problem: I've had enough answers that were guesses!"
