Well, the hypers have pushed technical distros like CachyOS to casual users, requiring them to go to terminal to install apps instead of pushing people toward user-friendly distros with GUIs that would make their computers and apps even easier to manage than on windows.
That's how we lose: by overestimating the tech-savviness of people and calling them stupid when they don't get it, as if everybody had a degree in computer ~~engineering~~ sciences.
We are the stupid ones. We are toxic.
Computer engineering is typically hardware and low level software design which doesn't really fit the analogy you're going for.
Case and point right here with that correction.
