While I don't agree with the whole example, I think Kevin is right with

point that it's a matter of level of abstraction.
I have to question whether constantly moving up that ladder is the
correct way to go. Specifically, where is the diminishing return
level of abstraction?
More complexity (in the entropic sense). Undoubtedly there's more entropy
in a Java algorithm making use of VM, hot spot, GC etc... than coding in
native machine language. Increased complexity is what you pay for more
productivity, manageability, readability, performance, etc...
