How hard is it to for you to assemble a piece of IKEA furniture without an allen wrench, screwdriver, and clear instructions, vs with those 3?
You didn't read the article it seems (or the analogy is a bad one). The differences are much more subtle than having a screwdriver or not.
Well, I assembled Alex once without instruction and with impact driver and hammer last year. Hardest part was to make tools fit.
