Mike Rowe agrees with you, so what's your point? Of course it is hard. Mike's point is our culture is becoming increasingly averse to engaging in hard, physical labor, even in the cases where compensation greatly exceeds that of many other fields.
Facebook isn't requiring him to do this. They are asking him to if he wants to get further in the candidate process. Clearly a bad approach by the recruiter (perhaps a mistake?), but to liken this to slavery is a reach. Just withdrawal candidacy since you weren't very interested anyway.
If this is holds true, why do people buy from markets where prices regularly decrease? Wouldn't it follow that they will wait in perpetuity and never buy that new phone/laptop/etc?
Then you've figured incorrectly. There are absolutely a high number of these people who are scamming. A major reason they persist and misdirect resources from those that are truly need, is because of those who blindly assume "every single person" is in need.
Is there something about Python on Windows that isn't stable or are there specific package/modules that Django requires that have issues?
So a Tesla can fly, eh?
That's my point - I don't see this being much easier or particularly valuable, considering I will always have to be highly competent with straight HTML regardless. To me, this is a mental switch with little payoff (handlebars + HTML is fine).

Raising prices lowers the barrier to exit because the costs of switching to another platform become that much less expensive relative to staying with the Microsoft stack.
