I think this is increasingly true of us as a society. We have been consistently elevating "ease of use" over every other objective and/or subjective quality. We've reached the point where easier is better, even if it is objectively worse. We are all settling for local maximum that are significantly lower than several other maxima because apparently making the effort to move further along the x-axis is now almost considered the worst thing one can do.
