Phones have as robust file system browsers as desktop computers.
It's probably just that the users of phones are not that "robust" and organized to care where the files are.

On the android side the file browser that comes with the phone (if any) is bare bones. This combined with various sandboxing can make it pretty annoying to know exactly where your files end up.
Then there is the fact that the small UI on phones simply isn't all that great for browsing a large list of files.
So, putting it squarely on users isn't correct imho.

Of course, younger users never really having used a file system doesn't work either. But certainly calling them "less intelligent and unrefined" is a ridiculous hot take if I ever saw one.
The people who don't bother to do so probably are better off without it anyway, so no harm no foul and everyone is better off.
