The inefficiency is that the programmers effectively write an API that
duplicates much of what a higher level language would do anyway and
then program to that because they need something higher level to
manage the complexity anyhow.
XUL, for example.
XUL is a pretty rotten example, as it is basically a platform for
Javscript... which is one of these higher level languages you are waxing
on about..... ;-)
