Digital Native vs Foreigners
Maybe us oldies are better at IT because we have had to learn it from scratch. For the digital natives it just always been there to use.
This is the same as the many Europeans I know who speak better english than me (ok then:than I!). They have had to learn the building blocks of grammar, vocabulary and syntax; to decode idioms, slang and shorthand expressions.
In this case we are past peak IT, it is unnecessary for most people to understand it. They only have to use it. There will always be specialists in both English Grammar and IT. For everyone else, these are just tools put there to use.
