100% agree. The industry took the term DevOps and started applying it to old-style ops teams (only difference is the ops teams use more "modern" tools). There's still value in having an infrastructure or platform team focused on building tools to enable dev teams to more efficiently deploy, monitor, and run their code, and to step in with expertise when needed (ie help debug things like database performance, etc). More "teach a man to fish" type help, but also "give them a good boat and fishing net".
