I'm starting to think we're talking past each other. Your last paragraph seems to imply that legacy systems were more approachable for a newbie to debug. If that's your point I wholeheartedly agree. It's not that hard as long as you get over the fear of fucking something up.
I do agree that juniors had an easier time learning on legacy systems, and that's been true since the dawn of technology. Things get more complicated, and thus harder to get a deep understanding of, the more time passes. It's a lot easier to understand older and simpler technology.
I'm a little confused why you seem to be arguing both that the issues I mentioned are easy to google, while at the same time saying newbies never get a chance to debug them. Surely, if it's so easy, the newbie can take a stab at it?
Personally, I like to let the newbies have a stab at non-urgent issues first, and nudging them if they get stuck. They may not be able to solve the problem solo, but they know a lot more about how the system works afterwards anyway.
I think we have slightly different approaches but ultimate want the same thing: opportunities for juniors to get exposure.
However, employers these days are reluctant to hire them, and the barrier to entry is higher now so they can't necessarily get in the door on their own merits without that experience they don't have access to learn.
