I have no trouble thinking of myself as a "less savvy user".

I've been a professional programmer for nearly four decades. But when I'm not programming, I just want the computer to do things for me. If I can solve a problem by clicking a mouse (or pushing a touch screen) rather than remembering syntax, I'm all for it.

I'm happy to have a crutch. I suppose I could limp along on my broken leg instead, but why would I?
