I guess I grew up in a different time when people weren't completely helpless with mechanical stuff, but bleeding the disc brakes on a car is not a difficult job for a backyard mechanic, and people have been doing this for decades. The hydraulic brakes on newer bikes aren't much different, and aren't that hard to do with a $20 bleed kit from Amazon. They are a bit more finicky in my experience than car brakes, but it's not something you have to do very often; I just replaced the fluid on my road bike after 4 years and it still looks like new.
