"Some people", exactly. Not all. And, these days,
I rather suspect, fewer and fewer. Personally, I rarely
cook anything from scratch, fancy or otherwise.

Yes I am lazy also, but a lot of people cook properly.

But **** all are actually stupid enough to boil everything
to death anymore.

Some stuff has to be boiled, marmalade doesn't set unless
you boil it for a while, but there isnt much like that anymore.
