It's one of the reason I favor framework over libs or micro-framework, espacially from beginner. E.G: I tell beginners to use django, not flask. Because people usually don't have the skill or knowledge to take proper design decisions. They need something to guide them, otherwise the project architecture will be terribly wrong. Last year I worked on a flask site were the devs stored the password hashed as unsalted md5. And another one with an API that returned sometimes JSON, sometime plain text. And this year one that, to be deployed, required you to run a build process on the prod server, and defined the upload folder and static media folder as the same. My take on this is: if you want to go the minimalist route, you need to be very good already.
