Trite. A good a CS education will help you understand the relationships between abstractions like these and the physical circuitry that makes it possible. You don't get to just write the significance of this design pattern off because you can't grok it. Playing the violin takes hard earned, tactile expertise to the specific end of being able to pay the violin (not required: the ability to read music, compose original pieces, or know how to physically construct a violin). Separating implementation details from performant, coherent, composible abstractions is not just another skill to specialize in, not just another programing language specialization to acquire- it's the entire pursuit of our industry.
