This is great, but most people don't care about coding or building their websites for scratch. Most people don't work on their own cars. Authors don't bind their own books.
People want to share their thoughts, stories, and photos. In my opinion, we need better tools to allow people to create their own sites without needing to code.
While you're right, I like to think that people, especially kids, would greatly benefit from seeing this stuff once or twice in their lifetime. They don't need to learn it or use it, but they will forever recognize it. And maybe one day they'll have to write that closing tag someone forgot.
This can be applied to all topics. Knowing the basics of everything is better than knowing nothing.
People who don't care can continue to not read the things they don't want to read. But those same people should be prepared to pay money for someone else to care for them. This is not a new situation.
Yeah I agree that is true for most people, but there are also people who do want to code their own website from scratch, and for them this is a really good introduction.
