I suppose some people THINK that's the case. At any rate, learning how to do
all the kitchen (and every other) task with just your hands and a knife
builds skills, patience, poise, and understanding the things you are working
with.
I guess it boils down to this: the difference between collecting a hoard of
gadgets and developing skills with simple tools is the differnce between
having more and being more.
