That is harsh and somewhat elitist. I'm guessing people could probably say pretty much anything to sound skilled by replacing X here: "What? If you're a web developer and don't know how to use X, then you're not a very good one."

I understand RGB, base-16 and HSL yet this isn't instinctive for me. I might be a below average dev (although my clients and colleagues seem to think otherwise), but I'd prefer a color picker any day before thinking about translation of color codes.

The value that pops out of the color picker shouldn't be a mystery to you.
Ah, agreed. But your comment didn't actually say that - you took something kinda small and leveraged it too far as it would define the web dev skills.
I'm well aware of what I said, thanks.
