It's possible the dev failed. It's possible authors, educators and advocates such as myself failed as well. And others. I think we are mostly failing all aspects of Web these days, for many reasons, some fixable, others not so much. Education for Web is itself lacking standards.

Debate topic: a JS dev that can't handle some general CSS is a failed-to-a-degree dev.

I had people pushing back to making things easier to learn as they would “oversimplify” things. And I was: “Yeah, that is the point. You want to make things simple first, so people have successes and continue to learn.” We need more educators in tech.

Yes, and some kind of actual standard of coursework. Educators must also be willing and adaptive lifelong learners as tech changes and how! I like declarative and semantic approaches: human readable, meaningful - useful :)
