That might be the case today, but will that be the case two decades from now? I.E. if you had to optimize for friendliness for the next several million programmers around the world, is there potential to simplify the tooling and improve the onboarding & deployment experience?
It was the case already two decades ago, that is how I used to develop on UNIX, with X Windows and telnet, then eventually ssh replaced telnet, and RDP/VNC replaced X Windows.
