The Vulkan and D3D12 APIs didn't have to be so programmer hostile, they're just badly designed APIs. Thankfully, WebGPU took a lot of inspiration from the Metal API, and less from Vulkan and D3D12, and thus is usable without a "sanity layer".

That sanity layer ended up being yet another way to foster adoption of middleware engines.
