I feel that I am in the same bucket. Especially with WEB/API architecture. I've got a decent set of architecture rules that have worked well for every company I've joined. But asides from minor syntax/style opinions, no one ever challenges these rules. Likely because any consistent architecture is going to work fine. And the typical developer is writing code with a business need in mind. So it pays to stick to something simple rather than experiment with new design patterns.

> Likely because any consistent architecture is going to work fine. This is also a worthwhile thing to keep in mind. Most decisions made right now are likely to not be an issue if they are consistent. That said, it is still nice to know where the scaling and operational issues may arise given these decisions. It is a fine line to walk between over-engineering and just having awareness of things to expect.
