The reason it's sad to me is because there is so much more to explore, to be stimulated by, to be able to apply in a way that makes you think out of the box.

Maybe a lot of people don't care about that, and I guess everybody has their threshold, where as long as they know the minimum required to do their job they can stay in that comfort zone typing the same commands over and over.

It's also sad because the "lol I only know four git commands" people are the most likely to break something, or to make bad long-term decisions about how to manage a source tree (yes, it's possible to do it wrong). Amazing that we have programmers advocating for deliberately staying ignorant of the tools they're expected to know.
