Lot's of software is just shit/hard to use
That is the reason for degrading proficiency. Not, that the tools are bad but the attitude, they have to be easy to use.
That almost everything "just works" is nice as a consumer but it won't make you troubleshoot and you will not gain technical expertise by using such devices.
If I'm buying a bus ticket, i shouldn't have to troubleshoot imo
In my experience, it's often users who just want everything spoon fed to them like infants that think it's hard.
If one's made one's software well, the easiest UI to make is one that's easy to use
