It sounds like you believe HTML/CSS/JS cannot be abstracted out to
something better, yet ClojureScript itself is such an abstraction, at
least for JS - and we have SASS, LESS, Stylus, etc for abstracting
away CSS to varying degrees. The "current" way to build web UIs hasn't
improved substantially for years - it involves a huge amount of
ridiculously fussy boilerplate and/or complex styling markup. I sure
hope we _can_ create something better, something more abstract!

I like how Elm attempts to abstract away all that "assembler-level"
markup detail.
