I would argue while it has other benefits it probably isn't as simple. Simplicity is usually the long term better choice. As the business scales since you've probably set a precedent this pattern will be copied all over the place. After enough times trying to understand who owns the data transformations, what lives where, how to support it when one part of the puzzle fails and trying to wire it all and how all these stacks couple together becomes a nightmare. Unfortunately I've experienced some of these issues coming into organizations after the original developers have left once it became too "big" of a place to work for - few people truly understand the architecture and even when they do its flaky and recovery is hard. YMMV depending on the complexity of your business and age. In the end IMO it just seems like a big workaround to keep using Node.
