	The point of high-level languages is that they relieve the
	burden from programmers so that they are no longer required
	to implement specifications in such tiny, incredibly detailed
	steps.

	That way programmers don't need to be mistrusted to make
	as many low-level mistakes. They have the ability to
	work at a larger conceptual scale thereby, allowing
	mistakes to take on a more global character.
	This affects others more directly and is therefore
	more likely to demand solution earlier on...
