I think arrogance doesn't observed only on scientists but in every person who has in-depth background in every scientific discipline he's engaged. An Architect is arrogant when topic is about constructing a building or a residential estate where he know details, but can be ignorant and lost when topic is about Biology or Chemistry.

Arrogance pops up everywhere
Certainly.

Arrogance is a beast of a different hue; its relationship to pride?
It depends what kind of personality the person has. Everyone can be arrogant,if he truely and surely believes what he knows and he can present facts.

I think for me, it's part being a person. To be proud and have pride of what you know and accomplished in each field of expertise.
