Im the kind of player that understands mechanics after 1-2 deaths. I think we've all experienced that person at work who tries to "help" but ends up making it harder, lol.
It's more than that to me... Letting people die over and over until they wholly understand the mechanics and how to execute them properly creates a much better playerbase with a much higher skill floor that is capable of critical thinking, but people just aren't patient enough to help them achieve that. Maybe it's a bit idealist of me, but I'd rather wipe while people use their brains to solve the issue instead of pass the first time because their teammate "told them the answer", so to speak.

I guess it just boils down to, some people would rather read a guide first, but I came from an era where there weren't really "guides" and you were expected to die and do dumb stuff a lot until you won.
