Yes! Part of what an abstraction /API should do is to map the difficulties of the actual physical/electrical problem to the language. Arguing then that the language makes things too hard is missing the point... the difficulty of generically mapping gates and routes and clocks is hard and that has been exposed to you as LUTs and flip-flops and wires and clocks in something that looks like a programming language with a compiler that still sometimes fails to make implementations fit into the FPGA structure.

That some difficulties are hidden doesn't mean they are easy. Unless you have at least a proposed solution (language, compiler, architecture, ASIC) that lets people solve similar problems to the FPGA tool chain, it's just complaining.
