(check out modern computing for why!)

Because when you need to do a process a thousand times, you program it in an actual computer. Then you just have a specific interface for just your process that makes everything simple.

And the developer really only needs to understand the process for a couple months. Once it's confirmed working correctly, you're generally done with that piece of code.
