To be fair to this person, for someone who has a natural
aptitude for programming, it can be difficult to appreciate
how hard it is for people who don't.
When I first started programming, in my early teens, the
basic ideas all seemed very straightforward, and I had
no trouble seeing how to apply them. I unconsciously
assumed it would be the same for anyone else with a
reasonable level of intelligence.
It was a while before it became clear to me that this is
not the case at all.
