I am doubtful. My view of the future of software engineering is that developers will be better equipped to handle _more_ complexity, not _less_. And we all know what happens when there's black boxes. Not to mention you're locked in to a particular editor and language.

Imagine this, but with any editor or language of your liking, and the option to go deeper into the machine if things go awry. Wait, isn't that how things are right now?

It doesn't have to be, and it's particularly easy when you're starting out. Most of the time it's just premature optimization. When services start to scale, maybe you can invest a little more effort into this area, too, so why use Dark?
