> We don't blame crypto for being hard, or demand new frameworks

This is not true. There are innumerable cryptography libraries whose primary reason for existence was to replace or offer an alternative to a library with the same affordances but with primitives that were too easy to use incorrectly. “Maybe we should redesign this knife so it’s hard to slice a finger off” is not unique to web dev

I'm clearly not talking about libraries, but rather about the assertion "don't do your own crypto".

If you want frontend to be effortless, there's already Wix and Webflow.
