MODERATORS
It is unlikely they have the know-how. The OECD doesn't call Canada the "most educated nation" because we believe in learning how to learn. We believe that one needs to be trained before they are able to do anything. At this time, it is all but certain that nobody has gone through a Fediverse/Mastadon/Lemmy college course.
I kind of agree with your premise about education vs training. But, I know someone who just finished a PhD thesis on an aspect of social media. These people are out there & could probably establish rapport without much friction. And at the end of the day, I'd say it's better if these projects are spearheaded by people who have some wisdom about the waters that we're going out into. Though, yeah, I share your pessimism more generally.
