You are living in a fantasy. We are nowhere near this, and engineers who understand fundamentals very well are the ones in demand.

We will see, I still think we will need engineers who understand fundamentals, and yes we need to teach new devs these like we teach them how assembly, computer architecture works, even though we likely don't build our own compilers or hardware. But as time goes on there is less need to know about the lower levels.
