When my son was younger I would always build his Lego sets for him but he's almost 7 and now he reads the instructions and builds them himself, this is really no different and I'm pretty sure I could talk him through building a k series. I think most of the problem with inexperienced people is the intimidation that goes along with doing something outside of their comfort zone.

I think painting is easy too, but not everyone can do it.
I agree with you only if every single part is replaced brand new, whether it needs it or not. Problem is, no one wants to spend the money to do it that way. If being a mechanic was that easy, my 10 year old could do it. He reads at a high school lever and follows Lego instructions perfectly. It's not the so much the knowledge as it is the experience.
