Context here is "bicycles for the mind", a metaphor that was talking about people in general - it's not "bicycles for the minds of 0.001% of the population dedicated enough and lucky enough to be able to invest large amount of time to master the arcane arts of writing code, in an antagonistic environment, as software vendors try to prevent them from doing it".
Learning to ride a bicycle is also hard work. :-)
Fair enough :).
(As a father facing the challenge now, I wonder if it's harder for the kid or for the parent...)
