    I think if you gave them a year or two of runway with wikipedia and some YouTube tutorials they could figure it out. It's not black magic

    And in this scenario, they still have access to normal levels of food and energy during that year?

    Then, what, pray tell, is their impetus?

    You don't have to walk out of your job immediately and never come back to fulfill the escapist fantasy. Full homesteading and flying a plane are both pretty lofty goals but people don't hop in an aircraft without hours of practice and planning.
