Unless the tool is trash and breaks, or otherwise unfit for the purpose.

You can hammer in nails with your knuckles. Do you want to do that daily? There are people who can, they're still worse at it than a plain hammer or someone even using a right rock. Much less an assembly line.

Sure, we're talking about how there's no skill use with Google. But there is. That doesn't mean that every tool is good for every purpose. I agree that not every tool is good for every purpose. That also doesn't mean that every time a tool isn't useful, it's because it's not fit for purpose. Sometimes, it's because the wielder doesn't have the appropriate skills.
