I disagree for the term "tablet-fed" as it classifies anyone who used a tablet growing up and not specifically people who stayed within the cushy UX bounds. A lot of the future programmers & tech savvy people are going to have grown up from using tablets. Example, installing mods for minecraft PE when i was ~7 was my first experience actually doing something with tech.

I'm not far enough down the tech rabbithole to use Arch like a lot of people here, but compared to the rest of the population who can't find powerpoint that's right infront of their faces I'd be considered tech-savvy to them.

I feel like it does imply that though. "tablet-fed" really does sound more severe than just using it having one around.
