skill issue

Yes. It’s like people who say they can’t cook. They just don’t want to.

Anyone should be able to follow a recipe. And UI design generally follows recipes. Because UI’s simply suck when they don’t follow conventions.

Many people very much cannot cook because they have poor kitchen skills (or even none at all).

"Anyone should be able to follow a recipe" is far from reality, especially since the vast majority of recipes are not written for the kitchen illiterate.

That's an interesting analogy. I can't make proper UI but I can cook fine so maybe I should learn more about UI.

Any good source of design recipe to share?

I think the guy you responded to was making a joke. "skill issue" for Linus Torvalds.
