Well, I am one of those people. I have never earned a dime as a graphic designer. Never even completed a MOOC or a regular course in this subject.
But I do take presentation seriously, and meddle in fonts, colors, design, etc., and have designed friends' wedding invitations, greetings cards, and so on. I also took typography seriously when turning in college assignments, my Master’s thesis, etc.
Even to a sub-rookie like myself, I simply don't agree with that point. And when two of ten minutes go to a point that I simply find wrong, I think it should be pointed out loud and clear, and it reduces the value of the list significantly.
