It all depends - as usual...
An audience who wants to get started in a very light weight way, and audience who still afraid of actually placing individual wires and connections between individual pins for fear of 'frying' things, prebuilt stuff with very limited flexibility it is the answer. After leraning to 'sit' and getting excited about the possibilities, prebuilt stuff pretty quickly is left behind.
But lowering the entry treshold is very important.
A few selected setups can be very successfull and open the world for many who would otherwise not even think about doing IoT.
