> BUT your best bet for actually leveling up is reading these ten books I'll give you

On the whole, junior dev-age people don't read books much. They read short-form stuff on screens.

The question was how to learn, the answer (one answer) was read a few specific known-good books.

"new devs don't read" is a non-sequitur imo.

If they want the info, they will, or not. The info is there. Take it, don't take it, what do we care either way?

You’re not wrong. But this also sounds like a “not my problem”.

You can bring a horse to water, can’t make it drink…
