a lot of beginners don't want to go down that tough and personal existential road. they expect and even demand a ready-made solution to be given to them, just like everything else in modern life.

it's very daunting at the start of a journey when you don't know anything and what consequences await you down particular paths of development. so the packaged solution has a lot going for it.

for some people learning to drop preconceptions and just experience what they are seeing is in a similar category to religious conversion. it's sad how few people actually know how to use their eyes and mind together because they make stunning things.
