This sounds good and it will resonate with many people. But it is
a simplification of the facts.
If untrained people are allowed to build and/or maintain complex
things, and the inevitable happens, then it may not be simply
because their tools are "wrong" but because the nature of the
whole practice is very complicated and unregulated. It may simply
be very hard to build good simple tools that everyone can use to
do nearly everything they want to do. All sorts of things can
stand in the way of this. In the case of website building,
browser manufacturers adherence to a common standard would make
things incredibly better. Even wsiwig tool makers would then be
able to fashion things that worked well.
