I talk about this frustration a little here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qHwL8C9UoA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qHwL8C9UoA and also (more pithily) here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVUPmmUU3yY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVUPmmUU3yY There's nothing more frustrating than people telling you 'I wouldn't start from here' when you are the one that has written the productive software. There are tremendous advantages to monolithic software architectures, but for some reason they are seen as impure. It reminds me of the Java/object orthodoxy of ca. 2000 when everything had to be a class. Meanwhile procedural code came back with a vengeance, because it's advantages are those that can be used by people trying to write useful software on a budget.
