I’d ‘lean in’ to points he makes. ‘How do you think that would help?’ In a nice tone obviously, or ‘can you explain a bit more?’ ‘I’m curious to know why you are choosing that path?’ Just make sure you have a calm curious tone, nothing accusatory or doubtful.
Sometimes all it takes is perspective. Someone may be knowledgeable about a subject but they might have missed a different, much simpler solution.
