Power of text or other symbols is that they aren't spatially bounded. That's why it works even in "1D".
There are probably some possible usability gains from adding dimensions. E.g. node-type "programming" in Blender is quite nice. But for general purpose progamming it's hard to see how we'd get rid of symbolic representation.
