    Mostly it is because iOS and Android abstract away the file system. I’m 43 and have been using computers since the late 80’s, one of my biggest gripes with android is the lack of a good simple file browser and text editor.

      Phone OSs are definitely a big culprit but students entering college now would have most likely at a minimum been issued Chromebooks since middle school. While not perfect at least Google drive would give them a chance to get to grips with how to navigate files.

      I’ve been using Solid Explorer for years. There’s likely something better now, but it’s served me well.
