I think I disagree. I stumbled on lspci specifically, because I built my new PC with dual gpu ( to use real gpu in VMs ). I do not consider myself an advanced user ( maybe intermediate ). I basically agree with OP. Advanced does mean advanced. It does not mean using couple of simple commands picked from one google search. To me it means being able to think a little beyond the basics and putting things together. Advanced is subjective, but we should not water it down to basically a list of basic commands...
