That being said, I know of several people who gave up trying to use it because it was too complicated. I presume those people also can't text on their phones, and if they still have VCRs, they are flashing 12:00.

I know many people that can't program anything.
My mother is like that. She gets frustrated easily.
In one case, a guy told his wife the new DVD player was complicated for a woman to attach to the TV. This was before HDMI. A couple of us asked what wires. We said ok match the red wires to the red inputs, the white to the white and the yellow to the yellow. Now turn on both and tap source on the tv remote until the DVD player shows up.
She came back 2 minutes later tickled with herself. We also asked her to tell her husband that women helped her.
