Actually, I would rather language and tool designers have a go at a true System Admin job. There is a reason PHP gets installed by default and Ruby on Rails does not. Frankly, at the end of the day, most businesses don't want something that was "working" breaking. All the conflict comes from that one desire. There is a reason System Admins have to do the "Patch Tuesday" dance and despise any software that just updates by itself. Getting yelled at because Chrome updated to a version not supported by your ISV or your local developers is an amazingly fun experience. Yep, System Admins have to be the company nanny. It sucks, but the apps need to keep working.
