I agree with you overall. This is purely speculative, but it seems that the rise of pre-packaged ML solutions has caused the meaning of "from scratch" to have changed to "with sklearn". It's easy to feel like a short python script using sklearn is "from scratch" when you were using a WYSIWYG solution before.
That said, the book "Data Science from Scratch" is great, and I'd recommend it to those looking for a deeper understanding than just "import sklearn".
