Because tools tend to produce bad code, especially if you want to do
something complicated, and if you don't know what the code is supposed
to look like or the difference between good code and bad code, you'll be
able to generate pages all day but then not be able to fix what's wrong.
You also won't be able to do anything that's beyond the tool's capabilities.
