I would argue there's something to that.

Maybe hello world level Basic or Pascal or beginner Python first, but then assembly before C or Rust or even JavaScript. Something's been lost for the set of devs who don't know what higher languages are doing for them under the hood.

I'd similarly agree with ricardobeat that CSS frameworks should come after CSS, and JS frameworks after JS. Rapidly ascending abstractions is great, if you take long enough to understand what they're built with, and some things will always be solved more simply by dropping back down a layer or three.
