This whole discussion bothers me.

First Hypercard and then AppleScript were advertised as "programming for the rest of us" with "English-like" syntax that made it all simple enough that a priesthood of paid programmers would not be required.

It's not the simplicity or complexity of the language that counts, it's the willingness of people to offer or require applescript skills in the labour market. In a nutshell: ideas are cheap, labour is expensive.
