The 0th order Dunning Kruger effect is mere stupidity. The n+1 order Dunning Kruger effect is the observation that the more you are subject to the nth order Dunning Kruger effect, the less you believe yourself subject to it. The observation that the effect holds true for all n > 0 is itself the ω order Dunning Kruger effect, and so on. There is a Dunning Kruger effect for every ordinal.
