The difference is sort of like the difference between a qualified ESL teacher and a native English speaker [...]

This example is perfect - native teachers (regardless of the language being taught) are often clueless on which parts of their languages are hard to master, because they simply take it for granted. Just like zoomers with tech - they take for granted that there's some "app", that you download it, without any further thought on where it's stored or how it's programmed or anything like that.
