I think text based programming languages are a local minima that's it's hard climb out of. Partly because most languages aren't designed around being represented by structured data. And no one has any morden experience with that.
But do imagine a world were changing the name of a field in a struct results in a single diff message, 'struct foo field bar changed to baz'. And where a change set to to a library can be mechanically applied to to code that depends on it and it just works.
