I find it interesting that many people are apparently no longer able to grok maps at all. Even on their phones.

If there isn't a blue dot, they have no idea where they are. Nor how to go anywhere that isn't linked by a blue line.

It's a lost art indeed.

It doesn't help that everyone perpetually keeps their navigation apps oriented as "forward up", thus any sense of directionality is forever lost. They'll use my navigator with it set "north up" and get very confused at intersections. How is this such a difficult skill?

If there isn’t a blue dot, they have no idea where they are.

That's the neat part. Even with the app, they still don't. Only now they don't have to know.
