I agree with your core point, but no software is intuitive.

Most people can intuitively both exit VS Code or edit and save a file with it.

Saying that no software is intuitive is a false equivalency or overbroad generalization.

I am 100% confident that your claim is factually wrong.

What makes stuff like the [X] button on the corner and Alt+F4 intuitive?
Multiple years of having used MS Windows and similar looking software as a student.

They got the marketing part right here, at least.

But if we are being inclusive, nothing really is intuitive.


I have seen BTech graduates struggle with installing software using the Wizard that is so omnipresent on Windows, so I don't expect anything to be intuitive at this point.
