In the same way that frameworks lead to bloated more poorly performing applications than we had in the past. Recent backend engs asking me to send two requests to upload just a single file because their framework somehow made it difficult. They didn't want to have to write a SQL query. So instead keep the code "clean" by every time requiring two requests instead of one, objectively providing something crappier than what we've had for over a decade and more. The youthful bent to software dev only exacerbates this.
