You don't need to know everything, just where to look for what you need to know.

What's wrong with bumbling professors who can't keep their ties straight?

Nothing at all! Some of my favourite history professors can't keep their ties straight....their laces done up, or their studies in any semblance of order. One of the professors who teaches our historical skills module is like something out of a book, he really aught to be an Oxford don. I went in to his study for a consultation and had to move a cup of tea (with saucer) off the one and only chair so I could sit down.....having moved the cup and saucer I then had to find a place to put it.....the desk and small table were overflowing with books, journals, photographs of medieval manuscripts and assorted other stuff. He was however, utterly charming in a very old fashioned way.
