Sort of. I think of the Unix philosophy as being like Lego. Here's a box of goodies, go crazy. Even Ikea still requires user assembly.
Most end users just can't do much with the first and often even get tripped up by the second. What we need is something in between that a programmer can use to quickly throw something together to user requirements.
Actually, that's much like what I was doing with Microsoft Access and Visual Basic decades ago. I probably would never have survived in an actual software development shop, but I was kept very busy by a bunch of small businesses that loved the quick turnaround and manageable costs.
