And there are people out there who will use "weaponized incompetence" to make sure they don't have to do anything. If you can make a seemingly valid case for "I can't do it the way you want it done, so you need to do it yourself", then the wife will invariably get frustrated enough to just do it her-own-self. It's a *thing* in some households, and has triggered more than a few divorces. So learn, guys, it ain't all that hard.
