Compared to styling/layout mechanisms used e.g. in Android or iOS, you can argue that CSS often feels somewhat "low level" and unintuitive, which can largely be attributed to its origins (it was not originally designed with application development in mind) ... maybe this is totally unrealistic, but if you view CSS as "the assembly language of layout/styling" (I came across this notion in one of the other comments), then I could imagine that someday someone might invent a new "higher level" layout/styling language, which generates CSS under the hood.
