But anyone with basic experience in Python could have written that same app in minutes 20 years ago?

I fail to see your point. That's not what this is about.
I wrote "Welcome to 2026", because the user, apparently, did not yet know that it only takes a few sentences for having it create a simple notepad clone.
If I had asked pqtyw to write me a barebones notepad clone, 20 years ago, would pqtyw have done that? For free? Within a single minute?
No!
Well at least 10-15 you could just copy pasted exact same thing in a few minutes yet. But regardless even a basic notepad app is significantly more than a tkinter window with an input field.
