Exactly - you don't have to know why a car (or computer, or telephone or..........) works to use it & use it effectively & reliably !

I am also an engineer (electrical) & there was a time when I wanted to know how everything worked. Now, I tend to ask myself the question "do I really need to know how this actually works ?" - often the answer is no, not really, I have other things to do. My time is not infinate.
