This is a terribly callous and unproductive response that discourages intellectual development for people who aren't at your level. We all have to start somewhere, and this could very well help someone enter the Julia ecosystem.

So, from an author's perspective, it is also much easier and less time-consuming for him/her to write at a much lower level. I know that writing on the absolute edge of your learning helps in solidifying your learning. But maybe I just don't want to always write on my edge level. As an author who is writing for mainly pleasure, maybe sometimes I just want easier tasks. I think it is totally okay to not always write on one's edge and write some quick and easy content. On top of that- implementing an ODE solver using RK4, BDF, implicit Euler is not that hard. For an experienced dev with the right mathematical maturity it is easy. It can be done in a few hours. But maybe I simply like to talk about DEs for someone who is getting a refresher or is beginning. That is justification enough for my choice of this topic and this level.
