It's taking an important tool out of the tool box for no other reason than his personal bias against them.
You don't think it's a metric of competency? I don't know, I'm not in the restaurant industry but it seemed like a skill to me.
Just because it's a competency doesn't mean you shouldn't use the tools available to you. Should I not use woodworking jigs because I'm competent in cutting dovetails? It makes the job easier and less prone to errors.
Gordon always makes it a point that it's extremely easy to do, but I genuinely don't know cooking so I can't check the veracity.
However, I also can't check your analogy either because I'm not great at cooking nor woodwork. If it were programming and someone had to use GitHub CoPilot during an interview to do what I considered an easy task then I'd not want to have them at a high level.
Once again, my analogy I'd probably bollocks because I don't know cooking.
