Thank you for articulating that so clearly, it echoes my thoughts very strongly. I agree, they are asking the wrong questions. I have spend more more time than I care to think about in front of a text editor trying to coerce computers into doing what I want. The sheet volume of information I need to know to be productive often makes me shy away from recommending this career path to others. And I wish your example was how things really were. If only the second problem was learning code. The gap from not knowing code, to knowing enough code, tooling and how to do things to solve a real world problem is so dauntingly large. Even the concept of that a variable can change value inside a loop is so mind-bendingly hard to get ones head around and so abstracted from the real problem they're trying to solve. But a discoverable visual canvas where you can SEE things fitting together, and the little notches meaning only the right types of blocks can fit together like lego. So useful for bringing problem and solution closer together.
