> Nobody is deploying naive bayes algorithms

Exactly my point. You are so into user perspective that you think you are arguing against me.

Yes, they’re not deploying them. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t still help to know the fundamentals of the field, especially when you’re trying to innovate.

Yeah. But you didn’t build a plane without knowing physics right?

Nobody deploys a textbook algorithm because everyone knows textbooks algorithms and there are no advantages. So, no, there is real value in learning the fundamentals, dear founder.
