It’s not about capability, it’s about interest.

Most people could do a bit under the hood of a car, but they simply don’t care.

It’s the same thing with computers. Most users are savvy. They just don’t care.

In my experience (systems engineer/devops for both Windows and Linux for more than 25 years), very few users are actually savvy. Even those working in tech.

Our definition of savvy probably differs.

That is possible. Mine would be more or less "someone who knows what they're doing"
