My main issue with low-code/no-code is that it attempts to solve the complexity problem, without understanding what "complexity" is. Code is perceived to be complex, but when you look deeply into what people mean when they say that, it's almost entirely a social perception. They see these weird characters and it looks like gibberish and they assume that the people who understand this gibberish are somehow on another level of intelligence.

Code is really just a formalized expression of what you want. It happens to be used for very complex problems, because it's very good at solving complex problems. This in and of itself does not make code inherently complex.
