Hard to teach kids? Can you rule out it being impossible for everyone, except for individual cases like yours where highly motivated circumstance intersect with opportunity to learn them?
In other words, you're talking about exploiting centuries of cross-disciplinary not always intuitive wisdom.
First, would anyone be able to arrive at these conclusions and how to efficiently implement them in time to help themselves?
If not, we require learning reading in school but not learning to read this stuff, so who would think to study it unless there was specific cultural awareness?
Last chance, lucky for you your dad will suggest it. Not so lucky though, almost anyone telling you to change your life in a direction you're not seeking will sound like a dumbass peddling koolaid.
Is the last nail in the coffin it's sometimes counterintuitive? Why should a person not think, sounds nice dumbass (temper trolling, I apologize), but you've got no way to prove it's going to on my non-sheep smart brain.
And you can't prove it really, with any certainty. Despite the irony that the smarter and less sheeplike s/he is the more successful they are likely to be with it (speculation).
Loved the root comment/anecdote though, one cynical point doesn't change that. It's probably a rare beast, a comment that could add value years from now - no shelf life, on a tech site even.
