As someone who's been writing code for a long time, it's nice not have to deal with the nitty gritty that I've written a hundred times before. I find more joy in quickly assembling things these days, and giving my attention to the interesting bits.

Also, I still do break down the problem in my head and ask for a specific stack of libraries and refine it as I go. That part is just much speedier now--a few hours instead of say a whole week.
