Such people are only non tech-savy because of their ignorance. Stop doing useless things in life and learn, it's not even complicated.
But not everyone always pays attention to techy things, if people are going to introduce others into the bitcoin world they need a basis to start from. Not a lot of people in 2011 probably even knew what it was or how to get it. Of course jumping on the bandwagon now is kind of dumb because of how high priced they are and how difficult mining or getting any is.
I wasn't directly referring to bitcoin here. Also I do not know why people need to understand how Bitcoin is being made? Does the majority know how paper money is being made except of that it is being printed? No.
