You are being sold in a different way. A successful course is one where you haven't requested a refund. The courses are designed to create little friction and in the end leaving you with a feeling that you now know 'x' and you are a 'x' programmer now. In reality you took an easy guided path. Without friction you may not have learned all that much.
