> My feeling is that devs in general are not into the "learning how to use tools" idea

Well, the devs learnt how to use Github, didn't they? Seems like people CAN learn things that are useful. I can also make the argument that Github pull requests are actually more powerful than git request-pull in addition to having a nicer UI/UX.

Being upset that people aren't using git request-pull is like the creator of Brainfuck being upset that scientists aren't using Brainfuck instead of something more powerful and has a better UI/UX like Python. It's kinda obvious which one is better to use...

I didn't say they could not.
