Then you have the best of both worlds. The patch is reviewed by someone will make sure it won't cause problems, and the want to be expert gets training and will eventually be able to be the expert.
The wannabe-experts can do all the reviewing they want today (and they
do). But we cannot make this a hard requirement, or we risk stalling
the project for patches that are not reviewed timely by non-experts.
