You can dunk on lay people all you want, personally I'm a lot more furious about fellow programmers who thinks it's OK to show an error that says "file not found" without any context like the filename.

Writing helpful error messages is definitely a skill. And I too get annoyed at unhelpful error messages.

But I don’t think your point invalidates mine.
