Not understanding what you are working on will eventually come back to bite you in some way or another.

What part of Moose hides the effective understanding of classes, instances, attributes, methods, and method dispatch from the user? What part of blessed hashes bestows greater understanding?

You're making a straw man argument that people who roll their own object systems understand more about the problem domain than people who use well-designed, well-tested, robust existing object systems, as if throwing just enough code together to solve what you think is the problem produces complete understanding.

If that were the case, we wouldn't have Matt's Script Archive. We wouldn't be able to find at least three and usually seven bugs in hand-rolled CGI parsers. (We wouldn't see people storing plaintext passwords in databases.)
