Maybe you're right. But I've mentored a few college students on the side. All interested in programing and in pursuing a CS degree and yet some of them wanted only the solution. They were not interested in why their code didn't work or what the error was, they wanted me to jump in and give them the solution. It's like they liked the idea of being a developer like many like the idea of becoming a writer, but they didn't have that mindset, that stubbornness and willingness to spend hours reading some shitty incomplete readme, going through dozens of GitHub issue threads, googling compiler's errors, reading the doc, trying until it works and feeling that rush of pleasure once it compiles/do whatever you want your program to do. And some of them couldn't grasp some basic, fundamental concepts like a for loop or accessing a method on an object after two semesters in a CS program.
