Can you add a third option "A little of both"?
Because let's face it, in any situation we can always say "if I was smarter / faster / etc." I'd do better. The onus is on the person.
But everyone is different, and people all have their strengths and weaknesses. You can put them in an environment or a situation that plays to their strengths or doesn't let them do their best.
If you're Michael Phelps on a football field instead of a swimming pool. Maybe he can succeed in both, maybe not.
I can always learn better programming habits, new methods, gain experience. I surely fall victim to my own bad habits or lessons I haven't learned yet.
At the same time, there are some things about QB64PE (not just QB64PE but all languages) where if they were changed, would help me do more, more effecticely, faster.
So my answer is "C", a little of both!
