Back in my shop days, we never needed a computer to tune a derailleur

I started wrenching bikes when adjustments were all about touch and ear (no screens in sight). Today's push for electronic everything makes me worry we're forgetting how to truly understand a machine. Are we trading skill for convenience too much?
