Super excited about this kind of stuff. Sutherland, mother of all demos, Bret Victor, live fish, etc.

However, going this route for real likely means multi-decade research and iteration.

Demos are quick to make. Generalizing and turning it into real reliable software seems tremendously hard, and beyond just a shift in mindset.

Fortunatelly, we now have vibe coding, so anyone can experience first-hand the frustration of trying to just shift your mindset and immediately reaching a metric ton of limitations in the very first iterations. It's a humbling experience that I recommend to anyone (go ahead and change the world with precision UI, just try it).
