This the natural consequence of a platform having high capability but low barrier to entry. Conscientious use of resources cannot be assumed and is in fact the exception rather than the rule, and so guardrails must be put in place.
This is an enormous problem with software in general. IMO it's probably because software has been abstracted into the stratosphere to the point that most developers aren't at all aware of resources or even the machine it's running on. That's someone else's problem. I really hate it.
