"Just draw" is not the a bad advice, depending on who it's given to. Even if it directly tells you what to do, people will approach the subject of drawing differently, is it really surprising that different people will have different results?

>giving it to someone who can self-reflect and innovative .
Ends up figuring out many of the fundamentals that you find in beg books without ever reading one. Whenever it takes them years, months or weeks. They actively question if there is something wrong with the way they approach the subject and will try differently methods and not afraid of failing a few times.
>giving it to someone with low confidence
If they try hard enough they end up seeing improvement and make it. If not then they just toss in the towel after noticing that their tenth drawing isn't any better than their first. They could also end up getting good at copying, but when they try to draw from imagination, they get disappointment that the time they spend copying didn't help them to achieve their goals and they just toss in the towel, because their goals seem so out of reach, when reading something like loomis could had saved them.
>giving it to an autist, narcissist or just someone stuck with a bad mindset
Keep drawing with their symbol habits. Thinks this is just how it is that they cannot improve beyond or that they think their is nothing wrong or to improve about their methods. Thinks that repeatedly deploying Chris-chan tier drawing methods and thinking will help them improve.

Have you noticed that NONE of the esteemed art teachers and art books actually teach you how to finish a piece?
One hundred books about sketching, about construction, about gesture, about "basics", about from, about fundamentals, but not one, not one showing you exactly the steps you need to take to finish a piece.
This is by design, the whole teaching industry is deeply unserious, there is simply no place for more professionals at the top (teachers or artists) so they keep you hooked on their "basics" courses forever. The people at the top don't want company. One reason for this predicament is new money, whilst the wealthy of the past were interested in pursuing new venues of art and philosophy due to their education, new money is not interested in art. They are more than satisfied with aesthetics which can be dusted off the shelf from the olden days or endlessly generated with no human inventiveness required.
This predicament is similar to martial art mcdojos, they appease you with sham tests of strength. Their brick-breaking and acrobatics (katas) are comparable to pointless studies and exercises from the art world. The point is to give you an illusion that you have learned something and to keep the equally inept teachers on a payroll.
