I wasn't telling them not to learn this, or at least that wasn't the intent. Learning for the sake of learning should never be discouraged, and I apologize if I came across that way! I was responding to this last sentence:

> It's just... sad to know enough that I produce less than optimal work but don't know enough to confidently prevent it from happening over and over and over again.

Basically, the notion that not knowing how to implement this means the resulting product is sub-optimal. My counter-argument is that delegating work that needs expert domain knowledge and skills to the experts and use the fruits of their labor will result in a better product.
