Every now and then we on our business ear:
All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection.
This is a famous aphorism of Butler Lampson, the guy who in the early 70s envisioned the modern personal computer. Sometimes it comes accompanied with an anonymous corollary:
All performance problems in computer science can be solved by removing one level.
Or even with:
Except for too many levels of indirection.
