This has been true for a long time and it is not a bad thing.

It’s an easy target to romanticize but realistically, any alternative is basically a way of saying: “let’s stop evolving.”

Disagree.

Wanting to evolve differently doesn't mean halting.

It's a call not to devolve.

I certainly think this is a subjective, “no one right answer” discussion topic.

From my perspective, we require abstractions in order to free our intellectual capacity up for the next layer of complexity.
