It doesn’t sound strictly like a counter-point? More like we agree. As you say they weeded out those who had the capability from those who didn’t. Which in my experience is what bootcamps do, very expensively.
Watching someone go through one of the more “legit” bootcamps: they first filter for candidates that can largely grok it and self teach by putting through a few hours of basic tutorial and quizzes. But a fair amount of ground is covered quickly in this which when you look at the people going through it (in chat rooms etc) means it’s very much a lot of googling and self teaching to understand what they’re saying in the videos. So after this point you selected people who can get basic programming and teach themselves. And the rest don’t go into the course and so don’t pollute their success rate statistics.
