OP clearly (to borrow your choice of word) wants to express that they thought people simply learn how to find information by simply using a search engine over time, just like you can become proficient in other activities by repeatedly doing them; and they gave some examples that many people here can relate to as such. I don't think OP wanted to offend anyone who doesn't know how to drive a car, or suggest that everybody should be able to. So, yeah, things are not always that clear. That's why it's so useful to give people the benefit of a charitable interpretation of their words by default. | ||

The examples OP chose are actually excellent: both of those activities require deliberate practice and years of training (education) and people who don't do either of those suck at them. Think of the average person you know that had terrible results in middle school and high school or of the average driver, that thinks he's better than 80% of drivers out there. |
