There are lot of useless, self-serving abstractions out there (looking at you, Spring and Angular)

There is also a lot of useful abstraction that ensures you can more easily understand the system - and that sneaks in orthogonal features such as monitoring and robust error handling, that managers aren't happy to allocate much time for but that prove their worth once the system is actually running.

It's possible, LLMs now offer a different way to solve the same problem, because the cost of adding those orthogonal features now approaches zero jueas quickly as working on the rest of the code. ("Add logging, please"). So it is possible that a lot of frameworks that did provide real value in the past will become obsolete with LLMs.

On the other hand, if you look at stuff like Gas Town, then it's clear people will still revel into inventing crazy architectures full of arcane terminology, independent of how much it's actually needed.
