Please someone tell me I am not the only one who feels this way! I don't understand the downvotes. You're expressing your opinion nothing else. That said, I generally agree with you. Layers of abstraction have a cognitive cost. That cost might be paid for by gains due to those abstractions, but the costs exist nonetheless. Whether this is bothersome is up to the programmer in question, but it is certainly a legitimate concern.
