It's a lot easier to produce "correct" code when they don't have a reference point for what "incorrect" code looks like. The optimistic side of me believes we'll discover new ways to scale websites because of this knowledge gap. A lot of cool tech was built in the 2000s precisely because we didn't know how stuff scaled yet.
