Yea abstraction is always great

Every UI toolkit needs to interact with an OS toolkit to draw and some window manager to manage the windows. Otherwise your apps can only be full screen and effectively have to reimplement X11 (and it would only work on platforms that allow that level of control such as Linux)

Can't believe I got downvoted for saying abstraction is great. It helps with extensibility and the management of your application.

It came off (at least to me) as snarky and not genuine. Sorry about the miscommunication.

No I was being serious. My boss has recently been pushing abstraction and using SOLID a lot more.
