What a crap, supercilious comment. Yes laypeople want functioning doors, but this is not an article for laypeople, it's an article for engineers. What we want are tools that allow us to build performant, maintainable, reliable code.
Besides, if all you do is to fix a door than you may be right. But we build entire tower blocks, with doors, windows, elevators, ventilation systems, structures able to hold up tons of material, and all the rest. Your screwdriver metaphor may be good go way to score a cheap point with strangers on an internet forum, but not much besides.
