The comment about convenience trumping almost everything else reminded me of this old post (wasn't originally on The Urban Dictionary but they have it now under the definition of Linux).
If Operating Systems Ran The Airlines
The irony here, I think, is that many people will have actually put together the chair they use to sit in front of their computer.
Yes, but only once, until they decide to upgrade the chair.
That’s highlighting perfectly the real problem: too many people can’t assemble basic IKEA furniture properly even with clear, logical, fool-proof instructions.
It’s not given to everyone.
I'm not sure which of the subgroups of this is more frustrating: the ones who refuse to put the necesarry thought towards understanding it but would be able to do so if they did, or the ones who do try their best but still can't figure out such simple instructions.
I use the term idiot instead of fool. I also use the term resistant instead of proof. Nothing is idiot proof. Things can be idiot resistant though.
