It seems to me that array language designers understand this, but they make a different trade-off by prioritizing density.

A screenful of an APL-family language can contain a program that might take thousands of lines in a Java-style language. There’s power in being able to see the whole thing at once.

Would a passenger jet airplane be easier to use if the cockpit only had an iPad and the pilots would have to navigate through UI trees to find available actions? It would certainly be more discoverable to the ordinary person, but the pilots would probably be deeply unhappy with this design. In this analogy, an APL-style program can be like a “cockpit” full of instruments that you designed yourself for that exact job.
