Athletes, no. The amount of people who can do what they can do is quite low, the amount of people who can learn to make coffee is quite high.

should be no difference between little league and pro ball with your logic. so you are saying you can make the exact same quality of coffee at home with consumer grade equipment as a starbucks barista using starbucks equipment? and how many can you generate per hour? over an 8 hour shift?

It’s pretty close. I’m quite impressive. Obviously I don’t need to generate x drinks per hour. This is actually why the “pro athlete” comparison is silly here. The athlete is a performer of sorts, the barista is serving a tangible product, the better comparison is to an assembly line worker.

Its exactly why it's the same using your logic.
