The problem, most of the time, guys who knows how to make their own presets can't conceive that everyone is different, and that some people just can't do what they do themselves, whatever you'll teach them. I've been using multifx since 1989, at the same time than some of my friends here in Mauritius, and during all these years, even if I showed them the basics, they always relied on me for their presets. They still can't make 5 decent basic presets that would get them through a gig. One of my friend has my presets in his Axe-Fx II, sometimes he did some tweaks, and when I check his tweaks, the levels are all over the place etc... We all have different abilities ! It's like me with cooking or dancing, I have two left foot...
And I'm not even talking of the guys that could learn but don't have the time and just want to play. Many here says that presets can't work if they don't adjust them for their playing/their guitar/monitoring system etc... This is not universal either ! For many, quality third party presets works without any tweaking.
tl/dr : everyone is different, and it's a big mistake to think that your experience is universal.
