We're talking about losing the constraint of filesystems that will burden future development.
At the same time we're clinging to programming using empirical thinking that came from the first machine language programs ever written. We should be at a point that we can think and write more declaratively even when executed sequentially. Numbers of cores has continued to go up and any language that doesn't parallelize well isn't worth investing in for the long term.
