This seems to be a touchy subject and I don't think that was the intent of the original question. There is always going to be different ways to get to an end result.
We all have our likes and dislikes. I didn't agree with the assumption that one method required less skill than another.
You can be a terrible hand quilter as much as a terrible computerized quilter!
Every method has a skill level needed to achieve a masters hand. It all takes practice.
I have frogged more computerized quilting than hand quilting or freemotion quilting. So not really perfect al the time. There is a lot of work and practice that goes I into making it look that way.
As we evolve in our craft we change what we like or dislike at that time. At least that is how it works for me.
I think all art is beautiful and I appreciate how much time it takes to master any tool or technique.
