While the human is doing most of the work, this looks more like teaching another human than coding in a formally specified, machine-parseable programming language.

On one hand, this could decrease the barrier of entry to programming. On the other hand, it seems to leverage (and train) the same skills that are needed to express ideas clearly to humans, which is arguably much more applicable than learning a traditional programming language.
