Hum... That's assuming you have a perfect development stack that hides all non-essential complexity.
And well, I have news for you, that's a low-code platform. A generic stack that hides every problem but solves every requirement just can't exist.
While code may no be the leanest human-readable representation, scripting languages are a quite deep local minimum. There is a difference between hiding complexity and blocking you off from complexity. Scripting languages work because when you encounter a problem your library / framework can't fix, there is at least a basic procedural Turing complete language to fall back on.
