Some people do. I should take this opportunity to plug one of Alan Kay's great talks. "Programming and Scaling" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyIQKBzIuBY But Kay definitely isn't a Hacker News/Reddit darling, even though he's well respected. He's too critical of the current state of software engineering. Rightfully so, if you ask me.
