Don't worry, as with anything there's a certain subset of people who actually know the underlying principles behind a subject, and for some reason feel threatened when those principles are abstracted away, as if their knowledge is now wasted. But that's the natural progression of things. Sorry.
It's funny it happens in a community of programmers though, where half of the tools that are used everyday are blackboxes that few really understand. Like the computer itself.
