I don't really know if I understand this. How is this not a programming language with a longer and more complex syntax structure? It would seem to be just as confusing to non-technical people as teaching them a language like Python.
For example if I said something like hey I want all the NBA players but they got to be like a little bit taller than 6 ft 2. What's a little bit, once you get into any edge cases, or even have to clarify what you mean, you might as well just program it out.
I guess I'd be more interested if the tool generated python code or something, and then I can manually edit it, or one of my friends could send it to me so I can edit it. Don't get me wrong if this idea worked in practice I'd be all over it, but I don't think it will.
Declarative programming by itself is fairly powerful. I think In future this is actually how you want the system to work. Just saying what you want rather than how you manipulate the state to get it. The computer can generate provable correct code which does that for you.
