This is more like saying you don't need to learn algebra and then saying you hate math because it takes too much work to get the answer you need. A surprising number of developers are under the mistaken belief that not learning how the web works is saving them time and over the years I've been amazed by how many people will instead unquestioningly spend years playing bug whack-a-mole with megabytes of JavaScript sturggling to replicate built-in behaviours.
