But you went all the way to the extreme. There is a gradient of know-how that is essential for mastery.
You can ignore every detail of a transistor, but knowing it can be like a valve is enough to understand that it can model consistently a logic gate of a stream of electrons and that can be used to compute.
If wouldn't be for that, then the laws that govern your whole computer become magic for you brain.
I fear the consequences of minds that value more their laziness rather to understand, let's say with 5 degrees deep of "why", the things in reality work the way they do. The alternative is that they are hallucinating all the time on narratives that can be psychotic or real and they are not equipped to discern which is which.
