I have similar anecdotes, I experience a lot of Gen Xers and Boomers expecting a linear progression of computer literacy, inversely correlated to age.
"You're so lucky you grew up using this technology, so you're used to it whereas I have to struggle - yes, do ignore that I had more than your whole lifespan to get up to speed on this ubiquitous reality"
but I encounter people under 24 that can navigate a touch screen pretty well but lack any fundamental knowledge, let alone typing on a keyboard in a proficient way.
fortunately most activities no longer require this kind of thing. auto-saving, and better UI solves alot.
I can see how wanting to teach these things will have challenges.
