my rant was not about your meme. But people actually use this argument seriously, and that frustrates me.

And I will admit that learning a new system has a time cost, but once you reach experience parity, the time cost per problem is less, and the number of problems is less. In that way, the "time spent" is an investment rather than wasted.

So A+ meme, it triggered me in all the ways it was supposed to.
