With respect I say that the one can only feel gobsmacked about how much complexity has grown.

In the 60s inventing one single algorithm with 10 lines of code was a thing.

If you did that today nobody would bat an eye.

Today people write game engines, compilers, languages, whole OS and nobody bats an eye cause there are thousands of those.

Quick sort isn't even a thing for leet code interviews anymore because it's not hard enough.
