I've actually been down this route when I was a kid experimenting with making programs. I did not understand what was the point of functions - why not just copy/paste blocks of logic?

It wasn't something important to me for a long time since I did other stuff instead, but coming back to programming in an effort to make a career out of it, a lot of that stuff became instantly obvious & I felt foolish for not recognizing it in the first place.
