But we will be teaching this lesson for the rest of our lives, won't we, old-timers...
[late edit:] People didn't seem to understand the point in some cases from feedback I got on this post so here is a comment from below, brought up to light here:
I probably should have explained more, this isn't so much about bots, per se, as the perception that if they were gone, suddenly everybody would be successful, which comes from entitled thinking and lazy slackers mostly, who don't understand the bots are not in their way AT ALL, and 10000 people here earning money without them, sometimes at full-time levels, aren't hindered at all by their existence.
Blah blah blah. Not about the bots. About the people.
