I think it's more basic than that. I think many people don't "get"
what the viewfinder is for. They only use it to aim the camera,
kinda like a gun sight. Hence, most snapshots have the subject in
the center, and way too much background. Or the subject in the
center, lots of sidewalk on the bottom, and half of the wonderful
building being used as a backdrop cut off at the top. Or a perfectly-
focused picture of a wall, with two blurry people in front of it.
Or... you get the idea.
