Visual scripting is considered normal at this point. At all times in technology the old guard will gatekeep using their methods as the correct ones. There's a lot of value in being able to type out code, but most people typing code into an editor have the editor typing so much of the code that it might as well be visual scripting anyway.

At the end of the day what visual scripting does is prevent you from making syntax errors by disallowing non-syntactical combinations of logic and eliminating typos all together except in fields.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with thinking about logic structure from that perspective as opposed to line by line as long as you understand that the scripting structure is generating lines which themselves are being interpreted down to bytecode and then into binary, the eternal language of on and off.
