This is a question Ignorance

I once was in a programming class where the task was "build a calculator". A student did one with buttons 1, 2, 3 all the way up to about 25 and then ran out of space on the screen. We've asked this before but liked it so much we're asking again: What's the best example of ignorance you've encountered?

I once lived with a sexy girl who would occasionally cook for herself, nothing too complicated, mind. See, she couldn't work out how to read the icons printed next to the hob controls that tell you which knob corresponded to which heating ring, so whenever she wanted to boil a single saucepan of water she had to turn all four rings on full.

Those icons are rather pointless.
My sister-in-law said to me a year or two ago "I like your cooker". When I enquired why, specifically, said replied that she liked it because it said "back right" and "front left" etc rather than having the stupid icons. I had never really taken that in before!
