I think the supposition is that for most people it is easier to deal with

IMHO it's good. At least for the companies. System programmers should do system programming, working in companies which produces systems.
Companies which *buys* systems should have system exploitation staff.
Last but not least: it is much less probable to blow up the system when using tools.
