The take away is at the end of the article
Okay, cool, we found a neat trick for making bike riding easier, but if I’m being honest, “break complex tasks down into simpler ones” wasn’t exactly a revelation in fundamental pedagogical principles for me.
But what was a revelation was that taking the pedals off was even an option.
From now on, whenever I’m trying to learn something (or teach it to someone else), the first thing I’m going to ask myself is, “how do I take the pedals off?”

Forget about the bicycle for a second.The guy is saying that there are probably all kinds of things in our lives similar to this, we should keep an eye out

I think the guy just made an observation regarding how his kid learned to ride a bike and wanted to share his insights. It is when it is linked and presented on a different platform that it gets a bit silly and sounds like some kind of profound insight :)
