I agree with you in many aspects of this, but I don't think "laziness" really means much. I think it takes incentive to sit down and try and read over a tutorial and play with it to try to understand it. Many people are turned off because they think learning to script is far outside their reach. I think if we enabled the average person to have a shot at learning it, then we might find ourselves overwhelmed by the number of people who are fairly decent at it? We may not find any
great coders of our time, the majority of really really good coders do other languages and pick them up quite quickly. I've met a total of 5 or 6 people in my life who can just take a language, and run with it. But some coders > no coders?
