Who would have guessed just a few years ago that the final programming language would be English.

In the 1980s/early 1990s when HyperCard was king, that would have made sense. And in the late 1990s/early 2000s when Applescript was a thing people cared about, too. But yes, for the last twenty years or so, English-like programming languages weren't the thing.
