My answer is that, like most subjects in US especially, until they are 'marketed' (what is being marketed is an analytical engine, a thinking machine...actually also an abstract concept, a function of the human mind since prehistory_).......why are we not teaching the mechanics of building and programming computers at an early age in schools....why are we simply endorsing products? a basic question
