As a ham who has been soldering for over half a century I was initially not certain that it was that big a stumbling block. But upon reflection I realize for someone new it's an unnecessary stumbling block. I hate software frameworks where there is an excessive amount of setup code and greatly prefer convention over configuration. So by going solderless he's essentially doing the same thing. It's a win if it helps a new generation get start building stuff at an early age.
