You don't get the point at all...
No, going biking around the lake on the weekend isn't a necessity, driving your car instead of taking the bus isn't a necessity and no I'm both cases you don't need to understand the mechanical intricacies of the bike or car to do it. You're over analysing for no reason.
And no you don't need to be computer savvy to use a computer if you use an OS that's simple and automates tasks like updates and not everyone wants to understand computer enough to do those tasks manually, hence me pointing out Linux users spitting on people that aren't good with computers while also saying that everyone should use Linux, which requires being good with computers.
My 90 years old grandma got her first computer at 80 and she couldn't tell you how to plug a mouse in it, it doesn't prevent her from using it to check Facebook and get emails!
