gRPC is kind of plagued by its strong coupling with Protobuf, who is a disappointment.
Imo, what could have been a decent piece of engineering has been killed by that "you should do like Google does" mentality, with some highly debatable design choices leaking in an unrelated standard (hello defaults).
