   The reason the "nature or nurture" question is repeated so often is that it silently lets our societies and institutions off the hook.

   I am seeing _so many_ complaints in so many fields these days asking "why are the yoots so bad at (THING) now, back in my day" and those conversations are never "what has changed in our institutions, that the people who successfully navigate them are unprepared for practice".
