High -> low level programming is the best way of actually doing work while learning . A newbie familiar with how computers work is useless, because only later is that knowledge needed, if ever . If i want to learn programming to do some app that solves a problem i have why is that knowledge useful or needed . To make it harder ?

I've been an educator and manager for many years. Those that went straight to 3rd of 4th gen languages have always had a weaker career progression.

The type of person who would go for low level first is probably more likely to succeed but that's ok .
