You could have some sort of absolute standards for doctors, like "they should never make a misdiagnosis", and then say that no one is qualified to be a doctor. That would be true. But by the standards we set for doctors, they are generally qualified.
By the standards we set for voters and journalists, they are not, and never will be. So it is still significant to say that they are not, and it isn't nihilistic.
