Yes, and every time I go to the grocery store my ability to hunt mammoths is reduced. Anesthesia reduces my ability to just deal with the pain of surgery. A pen reduces my ability to chisel words into stone.
Exposing us less to the challenges of the past is not a bug, it's a feature.
Think of it this way: everything our phones/computers do for us reduces our ability to do the same task in the long and short term.
