People often worship tools to fix their own coding deficiency. The reason is simple, proficient coding skills require many years of training and a dose of genius. Modern coders, by proportion, are largely lacking both. And the industry in general is impatient, rewarding bad but fast coding.

If that's the case, I wonder whether languages with steep learning curves still have a place, now that GC offers a more straightforward approach that requires less mental overhead.
