    I skimmed the paper - this is interesting on many aspects but I liked the breadth of what they analyzed... they use Excel as one of the examples!

    I know it is a valuable skill to be able to efficiently break down problems into abstractions but I suspect you would still end up with "porcelain"[0] that would hide so much of this it might not be worth it. Or maybe it is so generic it becomes a standard of sorts (or certainly a standard way of doing things) with flavors of implementations on top of it?

    In the conclusion they say:

    > ... a simple recombination leads to a design for a monadic suspending cloud build system ...

    Totally over my head as I still don't grok monads despite my belief I use them or something very close to them all the time without realizing it. I could not implement one. Anyway, I digress... neat paper and I will keep working on digesting it.
