Simulation Worldviews - So What?

The simulation pioneers had no choice but to write code if they wished to conduct a computer simulation. Hence the early interest in simulation worldviews, which allowed an application model to be separated from a simulation engine. Nowadays, few simulations are developed this way and few students are taught the various simulation worldviews, though they figure in many textbooks. Does this matter, or is an interest in simulation worldviews just a historical curiosity?
