I know what you mean, but it's really like saying they have no time to learn how to write!

Sure, part of the process is to invent an alphabet for so that the few orthogonal and fundamental concept can be learned since primary school.

BUT I'm sure that all peasants in Ancient Egypt would have argued they had no time to learn how to write! That's why they were under a Theocracy! That's why they had no time, after all.

Informatics CAN be simple.
But by making it EASY, by hiding its fundamental complexity (that is basically the complexity of math and human logic), you teach people to depend on tools... that could (and in the long term, will) enslave them.
