Part of your frustration is that you're asking the wrong question. "Is it good or bad?" That is the too simple of a question.
Let me use an example we can all understand on Hacker New: Is React good or bad? Should I start using React? We all know, it depends. Asking whether something is good or bad is not helpful.
The human body is more complicated than even the worst software project. And we're dealing with millions of bodies, all different, not just one. What is healthy for one person will kill another person (allergies, etc). Going back to React, we seem to want the answer to be either "everyone should use React", or "nobody should use React"; we want a clear answer that applies to everyone, but that's impossible.
I found this YouTube video almost exactly answers your question, context and all: https://youtu.be/mQ56uOkjccg https://youtu.be/mQ56uOkjccg
