If you want to have my opinion, I need to say that my opinion differs from a lot of other guys.
The problem is that way too many guys want the best idea built, but they never ever think about the consequences about their ideas. That is why we today need to live with C++ and C, and Windows, and the WWW and you name it. Does it ever gets any better? Do you need to have two screens? Do you need to add more RAM? Do you need to replace your computer because it gets too slow? This is why. This is why you need to have two screens, you need to add more RAM and you need to replace your computer. And I don't think that this problem gets any better, because today we have our "smart" devices, our laptops, our desktops, our servers and you name it. It never ever improves, you only have more bugs. So the problem IMO is that there are way too many guys who only want to develop but they don't think one second about the consequences of their actions. And other guys think: Hey, I like this, let's use their code. And then they fall into the trap. There is a word for this, the dependency-trap or something. So, to answer your question, fixing something like this is probably impossible, because of all the hardware and software that is involved. You just can't push the picture of an elephant into a mice-like device and the other way around. The only thing that does work is simplicity, but we are miles away from that.
