Even one of these topics I would say it would take most PhDs at least 2-3 years to “master”. I feel like at the end of my math PhD (5 years, 3 focused solely on my research area) I had just scratched the surface of mastery in my sub field, and that’s with 3 published papers.
I guess you’re right though, defining “mastery” is the key missing point here.
