The paradigm used to be create good enough abstractions you can express what you need in a few dozen lines or whatever. Those lines will be clearer and more precise than English for describing what it does.

I wonder if we'll ever get back to that? If it's still relevant?

I think LLMs will make vertical slice architecture more common using less abstraction. If juniors are mostly relying on LLMs then they will accept the long files it generates and not have the opportunity to learn abstractions.
