I agree with you. This article complains that generic industry practices are not as optimized as his niche solutions. Thats no surprise. Of course a build and deploy system specifically designed for your product/environment is going to be more feature rich and performant, but once the initial developers leave or move on, all is lost. I have seen it happen multiple times. Sticking with slower clunkier industry practices means you can hire someone off the street and they’ll have a much better chance of being able to understand the system. If you want longevity, you use the standards. All engineering (mechanical, electrical, etc.) agrees on that.
