I don’t think you’re naive. Providing detailed instructions to computers to accomplish human/business objectives is the hard part about being a programmer. But the level of abstraction has been increasing. It started as physically flipping switches then machine code then assembly then structured programming then object oriented programming and so on. I remember during the 1990s with objects and VB custom controls people were talking that businesses would just hire a bunch of high school students to work part time just snapping components together like Legos.
