In my 20’s I had this worldview that anyone that wasn’t technically competent simply didn’t have the time or desire to be so. I figured anyone could learn. In my 30’s, in addition to my sysadmin work, I did some level2 helpdesk. OMG I was so wrong.
When they say 50% of the US reads below a 6th grade level, it’s not just reading.
There’s actually a research that sometimes it’s just not in their brain capacity to be more technically savvy.

Well that’s fascinating. I’m not sure what to do with this information. Maybe read the study more carefully when I have more time
