I'm not really sure what you're saying at all? It seems like we have agreed but I simply cannot comprehend your example.

The point I was making is that we could all spend our time going as deep as possible with as little abstraction as possible and end up writing stuff in assembly because "it's important to know how something works".

There is always a cost/benefit with abstraction when it comes to getting things done.
