Each time a new book comes out I worry that everyone is going to become an expert and the easy games are going to dry up. But I agree, nobody wants to put the work in, most people just want to have fun playing (and there's nothing wrong with this) so I don't worry anymore when a good book comes out. The other thing about SSHE is that the strategies are not easy to apply -- IMO you have to study and re-study that book in order to make it work for you. Those who read is quickly only once become LAG IMO.
