Agree. I was a died-in-the-wool drip-hating espresso snob until we were getting some work done on the house and our espresso machine had to go into storage. Then I was forced to learn to make nice drip coffee and aeropress and now I can make basically all the types of good coffee. It's a valuable life skill for sure.
The real crime is most people make drip coffee too weak or with bad beans (or badly-ground beans).
