I think there is more value to a terse declaration of 'main()' than people think. In C#, you can declare a quite functional microservice under 90 lines of code with asp.net core's minimal api format. To this day I think the "enterprise style religious OOP+SOLID Java/C#" is something that has to go - so many applications that take 30 files and 4 projects could've been declared in 3-5 files with the most of core logic being in Program.cs that you can grasp within few seconds of looking at it.

It will never go away, before it was COBOL, xBase, C, C++, Smalltalk.

Tomorrow might be Go, Rust, Zig, or whatever they fancy using.

These are projects at scale of dozens of developers with various skill sets distributed around the world, optimizing for Hello World hardly matters.
