And this acclimation is also similar to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_maturity, how you talk with math people the from math village and feel you are stupid because you're not familiar with the symbols, the vocabularies.

When google domain was sold to squarespace, lots of people complained that they can't pay manually; it seemed unimportant to domain ownership, but they moved to cloudflare anyway; they were forced to migrate, freedom was taken, it was hurtful.
Maybe I'll add - simplicity the author referred to (or I would prefer to call it process elegance) needs experience and knowledge. For no 4,5,6 especially.
The history - surviving or not - contained often overlooked wisdom. Looking at the past reveal that our predecessors struggled the same struggle. It's also wise to realize that time can be too scarce for that; let others that have done teach us; keep our mind open.

Notice that the malware ultimately takes effect when the user executes the file.
This sounds more like an interaction design problem that should be solved in the OS level; the OS interface is one of the logistical bottleneck for the malware delivery path.
