I'm at a loss to understand this statement about the 'average person' being able to do the job.
From what you have said, you have never done that job. All you can claim is that you know some who have.
Is this the extent of your credibility to speak to this question? If so, I find your credentials to be lacking.
Or maybe what that last sentence says is actually the truth. Given your lack of experience, you have no insight.
