Well Wal-Mart sell just about anything, from food to clothes. GC are music instruments stores. So they're specialized in a specific field. Even within each store, there is departments. A seller in the drums departement won't work in the bass department, right? So if a seller works in the guitar and amps department, he should AT LEAST know his shit a bit.
Because if you don't know what a freakin' power amp is, then you need to take your seller career to... a Wal-Mart. I agree you gotta arm yourself with knowledge before hand, but hey sellers are suposed to help you make the right decision (isn't it what they're paid for?!? Anyone could go and buy a guitar without them anyway), even if it seems really rare these days.
