That is motivational content, but not economics. Most startups will be noise, even more so than before. The value of being a founder ceases when everyone is a founder, when it becomes universal. You will need customers. Nobody wants to buy re-invented-the-wheel-74.0. It lacks character, it lacks soul. Without it, your product will be nothing but noise in a noisy world.
Official documentations are not always complete. It depends on the diligence of who wrote them and how good they are at writing. Customers and users will always send mails or open tickets to ask this and that about the docs afterwards. Can't rely on just learning or retrieving from the docs. Clarifications by some dev or someone who found a solution/workaround will always be required.
how come MS Teams is still trash when everyone is being so much more productive? Shouldn't MS - sitting at the source - be able to create software wonders like all the weekend warriors using AI?

One of the worst takes I've ever read. There is something called metadata. Even if you don't do anything that is worth protecting explicitely, the data about your 'worthless data' enables perpetrators to see the patterns of your daily life. You can reconstruct so much by just gathering metadata over a certain time span, knowing when someone usually interacts with devices, social media etc.
I don't want everybody to be able to derive when I'm sleeping, going to work or when I'm going on vacation. Hopefully, it is obvious to you that even a simple thief could use such information (if leaked) to know when it is the best time to go on a heist in your aparment.
There is a nice 3c presentation by David Kriesel called SpiegelMining available on YouTube. It is in German, but the autogenerated subtitles are good enough to understand everything. He downloaded Spiegel Online newspaper articles over a certain period of time and was able to derive lots of information about the authors based on the article's metadata (publishing timestamps, author initials etc.)
