A big part of detecting bullshit is having the experience of getting burned by bullshit.

Not necessarily. People keep being burned by the same scms over and over.

Sure but if you take a population of people and expose them to the same scam over and over; in theory less will fall for it each time. Some might fall for it every time to infinity, but < 100% of those who failed on round one will.
