Using that way already reflects a great understanding of the technology bias, and a confidence in your own skills, that you just ask the feedback and not the output of the machine.

I think you could only develop this point of view because you grew up without it. I fear for the young generation, truly.

I wouldn't say so. I grew up without ABS but I trust it over my slow lizard brain. I just don't like being tricked into listening to a machine talking through a human. It's the same feeling as trusting a brand and learning it's just rebadged crap.
