I talked about "extremely skilled" people building these sorts of applications with no prior experience or exposure, but went on to say that competent, average people could do the same work after training and practice. I'm sorry, Sean, but no matter how you slice it, client-side JavaScript is just not that hard, whether you have nice APIs for managing and exchanging data or not.
