> I was just advocating against abstractions in general

No, you are advocating against particular kind of abstractions, and dismissively pretend that most abstractions are bad. Otherwise, you won't be using high-level programming languages and just stick to assembly or punch cards instead. You shouldn't even be interfacing with the operating system, write your own OS every time you need to do something with the computer. Also, since you don't like abstractions, please also avoid using higher maths or any kind of formalized systems that build upon layers of layers of abstractions. Define your own axiomatic system from first principles every time you need to reason about anything. While you are at it, consider moving out of the civilization, and avoid any kind of recent technologies such as computers, as they are built on the idea of "more and higher abstractions".

I'm being absurd, but I hope you get the point.
