Lets face it, the last half century has been slowly educating users about computers and UI. if a user of the 1980s era with a 16K PC and cassette tape drive (who, quite possibly had never been exposed to even a RadioShack model which preceded it, never mind a PDP-11 running UNIX (lets not even talk about something as brain damaged as RSTS!) were to be faced with an iPhone or iPad, never mind the rigs some of us are running there would be utter confusion and perplexity. Many of us are dealing in our work contexts with things like "Software Defined" ... well, that may be "networking" or "Storage". I think we already have "software defined recruiting" :-( The router, sdm says, is running DD-WRT.
