I know you're never going to believe us about this, but it would be
much more valuable for you to stop fighting the Cocoa way and forget
about constructing windows in code until you absolutely need to...

Of course, but that is not what is going on here.
He's quite happy to walk across the floor, but knowing how the floor
is constructed adds enormously to his confidence of doing so. Don't
forget this is an unfamiliar building, a type of which he has not
encountered before.
It's a different learning and understanding style that cannot be
dismissed by calling it fighting. If he were to refuse to touch
anything but the green tiles and make bridges out of chairs and tables
to sustain that, well that would certainly be fighting.
