We learned computer languages so we can ask computers to do work for us. It was out of necessity because there are no other ways.

If we can instruct computers with natural language 50% of the time, that's 50% less translation work for our human brains. I have no problem with not needing to write instructions in computer languages (no regex, no sed/awk, no python even) for day-to-day stuff.

Critical thinking, reasoning are another story. We can't let those skills atropied.
