I think in todays days, people are missing on the real challenges...and without challenges they pick everything easier...which is in real life is completelly opposite. To make a life out of the easy knowledge base is going to be tough for newer gen...hope they could get a better path to get some practical exposure.
As in ehn... that's a point. We'll only end up taking easier routes, and I can't even imagine the effects that would have on us in the long run.
