Does this person think these are unique insights? It’s not some big secret that manufacturers and software developers have continually tried to make their products easier to use so as to attract customers.
Do you realize that those two goals go hand in hand and are not mutually exclusive? For example, there’s no benefit in OS usability to putting out a single line error code as opposed to even the slightest detail as to what went wrong.

That’s mystificatiom of the system.
While it’s true that an overall goal of a company like ms is to sell more operating systems, that doesn’t mean that learned helplessness isn’t in the syllabus somewhere.
