Ubuntu is under attack

| Plus, even scripting is a great example of user as tool vs. computer
| as tool. Scripting by CLUI requires one to develop expertise and read
| manuals. Scripting by GUI drag-and-drop simply requires one to

The difference here is just the syntax and syntax is not the hard part
of programming.  Sure, it seems like that is the big hurdle when
people are just starting to program, but once you know how to program
in an imperative language, you can pick up another one quite quickly
and with relatively little effort.
