Yes yes yes. I'm currently porting a Alpha prototype app from Obj-C to Swift and I was telling someone on last Sunday that "Swift won't save you." The syntax is great, but it ignores so much of what's complex about building an iOS app. With the new Adaptive Layouts, the layout engine is now more complex, knowing the delegate methods is still crazy, Xcodes native auto-complete is still hot garbage and you're still going to need to understand obj-c in some capacity if you're using any legacy libraries. Swift is best if you already knew what you were doing. I guess it looks nice for newcomers, but we'll see how people take to it over the next few months.
