> Can you explain how this is true given that everyone using a computer today has had a lifetime of computer use whereas in 1992 many people were encountering computers for the first time?

The userbase has been watered down with a larger proportion of individuals who are not highly technical.

Oh that statement is so 1992. Millions of people getting a Dell or a Gateway and annoying their techie friend “So now what do I do with this?”

Or 1982.

Users are always non-technical.
