This is a very interesting project that I will be following; but I can't agree with this sentiment. Experience is a foundation of any skill and programming is no different. This argument could be applied to essentially any profession that requires experience to be competent in.

I think that it's better to look at the issue from another angle; the speed at which programming is evolving. If omniref were to pose themselves as a venue to simplify the act of learning new concepts and tools, that I can get behind.
