Yes. I think this is like the uncanny valley of development. It's not no-code UI driven stuff you can put in front of a business user. It's not real coding, which an engineer wants to do. It's config jockeying, which devs find boring, and is generally far more limited. So you end up building out more and more complex layers of config to work around the limits, including scripts to generate config.. etc. Seems like what you really want is modular apps that are easy to extend in the native programming language(s). Also maybe I'm just stupid, but 9 out of 10 times, a text file or csv/demitted file accomplishes most of what you need for pure config that really belongs in config.
