Back in the early days of the Mac, basic mouse skills weren't common. One way Apple sought to help with that was by shipping a HyperCard stack that walks people through pointing, clicking, double clicking, and drag and drop. Now that we're in the age of undiscoverable gesture interfaces, could Apple help people get the most from their machines by pre-loading HyperCard with a stack showing people to two handed three finger unpinch to feed the fish?

(The important part of all of this, of course, is bringing back HyperCard. Everything with enough RAM/CPU/Storage should have some kind of end user programming capability pre-loaded. If you need the extra space to add that, just get rid of the Facebook app, nobody uses Facebook anymore and its presence immediately brands you as un-cool.)
