While I think it's good the pendulum is swinging toward a more restrictive approach to abstractions, we've (and I've) certainly been leaning a bit too much toward just solving every problems by adding a layer of indirection around it, and such onion-layered designs tend to (as the metaphor implies) cause a lot of tears when you cut through them. That said, it's not like abstraction itself is bad.

A big part of the problem is arguably that IDEs make code navigation easier, which has us adding all these indirections and discover only when it's too late what a horrible maze we've built. Being more judicious about adding indirection really does help force better designs.
