and this is why i believe that having "user accessible" UI is actually bad, now im not saying every computer needs to use punch cards. I'm just saying that we need to establish some sort of standard for competence here. Linux is a really good example here.

Maybe it doesn't matter if someone is tech savvy. There was a time when we really valued the ability to fix your own car.

It was and still is valuable to be able to maintain the devices and machines that you and people around you use. I'm not sure why you seem to be implying that stopped being the case for cars.
