    Eh, lots of stuff can be easy to learn, difficult to master.

    Most languages only take a few minutes to do a “hello world” app.

    When you announce you’re comfortable with something, it probably depends on the scale of the apps you’re used to working on.

    So a junior dev could very well feel they’ve learned something like react after two days of cramming.

      A textbook example of the original meaning of Dunning-Kruger, wherein an inexperienced person is unaware of what they have yet to learn and thus overestimate their existing skills.

      This is a good point imo. They just don’t know the breadth of it yet. Being experienced also means getting a grasp of the amount of stuff you don’t yet know.
