No matter how good they are at it, they're still people. They too, I'm sure, have limiting beliefs, but are better at spotting them and eliminating them.

Think of any person you consider to be an 'expert' in their field. Do you expect them to be 'perfect' and always make the right decision?

From what I've understood about LOA, you're creating all the time, and those who, as you say, work with it or are considered to be good at it, are better at creating consciously, for me it doesn't necessarily mean they can do anything (walk on water etc). If someone is able to create 70-80 % of what they want (if we talk about 'consciously' creating), and not 100 %, I'd still take their advice on the subject.

If he thinks he can attract abundance, why didn't he attract a happy and succesful marriage?
Speaking not only of marriage, but let's say you make a decision now, is that it? Are you not allowed to change it, ever? I'm sure in 10 years time you'll change, learn new things along the way, gain new perspective and what if you realize that something else could be a better choice for you?
You grow and so do your ''teachers' (for lack of a better word).
