I think the market is always right. As complexity increases in areas as you describe, it will create opportunities for solutions that simplify things. IMO, it's one of the reasons that Phoenix LiveView is so appealing for people because it removes so much complexity from building otherwise complex tooling. I actually just had to come face to face with this because I've been developing a lesson plan to teach my son to program...and after looking at everything I settled on Linux command line + HTML/CSS + SQL. Then the decision came down to which language to teach and I narrowed the field to Ruby, PHP and Elixir. Ended up settling on Elixir simply because of the functional style and total capabilities without having to introduces tons of additional technologies.
