The most common reply I hear is "I haven't the time and can't be bothered to learn about this thing"! ...and because of this attitude, some do not realise/know/or indeed want to know ...  that there are many many settings which need...to be set to their preferences . I enjoy answering (or researching if I do not know the answer) all questions, noob ones inc.! but when I realise some can't be bothered...
When it all goes pear-shaped, many whinge endlessly blaming...the satnav, of course, unless their partners are aboard then, unluckily for them...they will get the blame  !
A satnav is a precision instrument but it is only as good as the human 'tool' who is operating it!; those are often 'defective' and do not come with any warranties!  " Don't follow me; I'm lost too"!
OR come to some Horizons meet ups where the Satnav subject is on the agenda
