I think the best way to think about EEAT is to ask yourself, "Can my site pass the 'What do you do for a living?' test?".
If your site isn't good enough to impress a [member of the opposite sex|potential biz partner|long lost love-child] then you probably have a shit site.

Have you actually read the guide?
They're saying that now EAT is query specific and not simply site-specific.
A site like Quora or Reddit might pass EEAT for something, but not for something else.

Wasn't this exactly what the review update was all about? Prove that you actually tried this product.

'Reviews' was an example. If you make a how to, they want you to prove you actually did it yourself. It's the same standard they already enforce.

Sill healthline and webmd cannot tell :

They are overhyped.

Well, if you just asked @Zwielicht he would've told you that almonds are no good no matter whether you peel them or nor.

And they discourage building backlinks

I think they like bluffing. Ban a few sites here and there, and everyone will panic saying it's because of the backlinks they bought. Everyone will follow the guidelines and less complex algorithms to detect shit from G's side. I think G learns most of the trends and loopholes through BHW and it takes them months to come up with something half-assed to stop the process for some time.
