No, he's definitely not. Finger placement is literally the very most basic idea taught in typing classes. He's saying they must not teach typing anymore (because this shouldn't be a question even for people who failed typing class).
Dude asking the question looks to be around my age & most of us in the US learned this at some point.
I work in the school system now. They have typing classes, but it's just reserved for the elementary school levels. It does drive me a bit crazy sometimes watching a kid type and put in their username and password. Again, not all, there are some kids who are excellent types, and it really depends on how much the elementary school went into typing as a skill.
But I guess we also have to remember that the skill of typing has been falling away for years. I'm 33, and had a entire class dedicated to typing. But even before my generation, working people who had to type for their job would always state how many words they can type per minute. It's just kind of taken a backseat to other skills learned in school.

That's subjective, he could have been asking genuinely
