2:not denying that they work hard, but compare how much easier it has become today to do a certain amount of work with how much harder it used to be without those tools...........

3: already said that that isn't entirely correct, but you also cannot blame people for their mentality and things they believe in 1) Things that are not proven facts still get listed in the wiki, and often stay there for a long time.

Like the idea of Qrow's Semblance being turning into a bird, mentioned as if it was fact (or at least, not without a tone that says "this is speculation"...which would still be wrong because Speculation cannot be in the articles).

We don't have real proof that Semblances represent or reflect any aspect of the user. The closest thing we have to "evidence" is Blake comparing her own (Perceived) cowardice with her Semblance. And that is clearly just a case of self-deprecation, not stating "She's a coward and her Semblance reflects that".

2) Hard Work is Hard Work, just because it's easier for us it doesn't mean the people involved don't need to put any effort.

We can accomplish far more in far less time, but we still need to work hard to accomplish anything.

3) "Mentality" isn't really a good justification, especially when there isn't even an user listed on the Semblance.

But aside from that, what do you call "Hard Work"? What do you call "Effort"? Getting out of bed, takes effort. Going to work, takes effort. Making a decent meal, takes effort. Playing something, takes effort.

For the average person, anything takes effort. For more "special" people like a crippled person or a blind person, some things take even more effort than for others.
