I don't know anyone who learned arithmetic from a calculator.

I do know people who would get egregiously wrong answers from misusing a calculator and insisted it couldn't be wrong.

Yes but I was also taught to use a calculator, and particular the advanced graphing calculators.

Not to mention programming is a meta skill on top of “calculators”
