This is such a bad take I don't even know where to start... Even if you think vibe coding _is_ the future, there are still so many things wrong about this article. It's like the author has a fundamental misunderstanding why we even create programming languages.
I actually think that they have a good handle on the motivation for programming languages design. Think about C. C has many features that serve programmer ergonomics. The use of "=" for assignment and the use of "++" for incrementing there to serve the developer by reducing keystrokes. Yes there are some languages that are developed to be more formal, but that isn't the mainstream.
