tso, I'm not sure that this is an issue of laziness so much as it's an issue of time and priorities. Should I as a physician spend my free time figuring out ports and proxies, as qole said, or rather use my limited resouces (e.g. time) keeping up on the latest medical research? I certainly wouldn't call my patients lazy for not researching and managing their own health, that's my job. Specialization is an inevitability of an increasing knowledge base, not a sign of laziness.
