My theory is that the shortfall can be blamed primarily on a lack of experienced mentorship. The people who are having real problems are unable to make use of the instructions. I do not believe the instructions are faulty, but I already know what they say so I might be blind to a significant deficiency.

My experience is that some very talented programmers merely do not learn well from reading the instructions. Once they are walked through the steps and shown how to apply the tools by a knowledgeable mentor, they can do well. They just need the mentorship in order to help them over the hurdles.
