The fine art of industry is building more and more elaborate complicated systems atop things someone deeply cares about to be used by those who don't have to deeply care.
How many developers do we imagine even know the difference between SIMD and SISD operators, much less whether their software stack knows how to take advantage of SIMD? How many developers do we imagine even know how RAM chips store bits or how a semiconductor works?
We're just watching the bar of "Don't need to care because a reliable system exists" move through something we know and care about in our lifetimes. Progress is great to watch in action.

How many developers do we imagine even know how RAM chips store bits or how a semiconductor works? hopefully some of those that did a computer science degree? (all of what you've said was part of mine)
