There's the opposite when there's too much protection: defendant provides an independent expert's opinion, court provides state approved expert of questionable ethics and professional qualifications but with a correct opinion, i.e. the one that supports the prosecution. And guess who the court will listen to, and that state provided expert is untouchable and has no reason to actually do a good job.

Yeah that's true. I've honestly got no idea for a balance between the two or if there even should be any changes made
