Eh.

Some people take years to learn to play guitar poorly.

Some people pick it up in a month.

Natural talent and an ability to follow directions goes a long way.

I feel they're not training often enough to actually grow their skills in it.
Natural talents do help but repetition, motivation and using time on it are probably the three most important aspects in learning (new) stuff.

If they play poorly after years, they don't lack talent, they lack doing the right thing. If you train the wrong thing over and over thinking it's right, you may never figure out the problem
