I'm amazed at how offended people are getting over this. I don't think anyone should need to try coding at all. I know a hell of a lot of people who wouldn't get anything out of coding.

I must admit, even though I seem to just go back to lorem ispum text for placeholders, I don't find it visually appealing when used in a layout. Perhaps it's because it doesn't look intelligible and thus it draws attention to itself? It often appears as a wall of text in your vision, not normal paragraphs of text. I think I may move to using randomly sourced factual information from Wikipedia or something.
