A lot of consumers don’t work on their computers. They either bring it to a computer repair store or buy a new one if they don’t have a family member or friend who can fix it for them.
As for what exact percentage of people in the world work on their own computers, I’m not sure if that has been studied.
I didn’t interpret their comment as suggesting that modern consumers would be familiar with a floppy disk, but instead was pointing out that regular consumers in the past often handled floppy disks, which made a good case for it being a common symbol at that time, but the same idea doesn’t quite work for modern day consumers who don’t often handle SSD’s, so it may not make a good replacement as a symbol.

Right and so where would they have messed with a floppy disk? lol

Ohhh
I understand you now. Sorry, been a sluggish brain day.
Yeah, an SD card would be a good option and I think the tapered end and the notch in the shape would be fairly recognizable.
