I don't disagree that complete idiots could do this. I'm sure their mixes could be equally bad. This is like putting someone who can't drive at all in the high-end sports car. I think I'm assuming a level of basic competence here. If a person knows enough to drive a Honda Civic competently, he'll be able to go faster in a high-end sports car.
