I think... sort of.

But interestingly, I feel like some of the environments which abstract away distinctions between client and server sometimes fail to optimize for the benefit of the user.

With technologies and APIs available these days, you can do some pretty cool things if you pay more attention to what constraints are (less abstraction) vs buying too much into frameworks that abstract the client/server model away too much.

No perfect answer, but definitely a good question in these times.
