My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We’re in our early 40s.

I wouldn’t deny the trend, but it’s equally ignorant to make assumptions regarding the reason for the trend. You make some good points, but correlation is not causation.
To be honest, i was with you until you threw in what felt like a needlessly insulting dig abount ignorance when you haven’t exactly provided any evidence. Only theroies presented as fact.
Sorry - I didn’t mean to be insulting with the word ignorant. I meant it literally, not pejoratively. That is, in order to believe that there is no trend of boomers having less digital literacy than millennials, you have to ignore the facts that not only present themselves in obvious and ubiquitous anecdotes, but also have been well studied and published.
