Re:File systems unfit as distributed storage back ends: less... by adfkbuvasdas on Wednesday November 06, 2019 @01:03PM (#21465113)
It’s not a totally fair analogy though.

Designing file systems for newer storage devices is an engineering problem that requires a lot of effort, but not a great amount of new insight.

Designing a new programming language that somehow exposes the concepts you mentioned more transparently while still being actually useful would require major, major breakthroughs and insights in PL design.
