Because the industry is obsessed with over-engineering. React and Angular were originally developed to power the likes of GMail and Facebook. Now the simplest of sites have to be redone as SPAs simply to support the React/Angular/Vue industry. With deployment it's even worse. Now we have to wrap our simple PHP/Ruby/Python apps in a goddamn virtual OS. Kubernetes and Docker were originally designed for managing massive fleets of servers but now every startup with a 2-bit website seems to think they're missing out if they don't wrap their code in all this infrastructure. Chef and Puppet were good enough for most jobs a few years back so why the obsession with Docker and Kube* ?
