There's a balance. Massaging wacky csv feeds to actually be parsable because someone wrote their own incorrectly is a real problem. Seen it dozens of times.
I think the real problem is programming has become too easy. Almost nobody really has to worry about data structures, memory management, any of the hard problems that filter for competency.
Some wacky insane stuff runs just fine on these 8-core multi-gigabyte ram computers we literally have in our pockets. A lot of it is on a VM inside of yet another VM, even that's fine. Just about every bad idea seems to work.
These kinds of issues are to be expected.
