If it's always the 'same kind of discipline' then of course what is needed is a higher level of abstraction so the programmer is freed from having to keep track of said 'disciplined parts' and focus more on other problems.

C++ while obviously useful, while it obviously 'works', and while it's existence in the context of history is also obvious ... is a giant clusterF of an anti-pattern programming language. The 'smaller, better language trying to get out' should have happened long ago, it didn't so maybe that will be Rust, but that's a big big leap and it's going to take many years yet.
