Your misunderstanding comes from the type and amount of people that needed to have that knowledge.

For example, we don’t need to know about ballistics to use a gun.

Even in the days of catapults, rough formulas for the effects of gravity made them work a lot better.

Do you have a source for this? I’m genuinely curious, considering Newton didn’t show up until the 17th century.

Lemmy is a bit more open thanks for the modlog.

We literally don’t know how much is being censored and reddit because mods can remove anything they want without leaving evidence.

Let me guess, you’re the kind of person who thinks we need to understand gravity to make use of it.

I really wish people like you could just have their mouths taped shut and their fingers glued together.

Good luck.

Keep in mind there’s no way to rush hours. Whenever you’re learning something, you can ask yourself roughly how many hours you’ve spent on it. That should reflect your skill and there’s no way around it.

An argument could be said that 3D space is infinitely more complex than 2D space.

As with most things, skill comes with practice. It’s not really worth forcing people to learn something that has a low likelihood of being relevant to their lives, but simple exposure to something like Blender or Godot would be great for making more people familiar with 3D software.
