Indeed. It reminds me the philosphy that I often noticed in MS (and
nowadays also in Linux software, sadly) contexts; they seem to think
their auto-changes are better than the intention of the programmer.

 
The overall plan is to turn programming into a minimum wage job.  That's
why they are starting to call it "coding" and make it sound like something
anybody can do.

And sometimes it doesn't even appear as coding; during a small episode
in Java I could observe they are just clicking together pieces of code
from drop-down menus using Eclipse.

 
So, they have to take as much as possible of the choice/initiative out of it.
Make it the modern equivalent of a factory job.

Interesting comparison. But, yes.
