Never used squeak, but LabView and Simulink are actually nice to use for large and complex systems. You use sub-routines to build abstraction layers. If you want to design an entire system without any abstractions, sure that would be a pain, but I suppose you can do the same in any language, it's just bad design.
For example, you create a high pass filter using all the necessary components and flows, and then you abstract it out as a black box called High Pass Filter, and can re-use as needed throughout the system.
