No, you're right it's not necessarily a good idea to be anal about this rule. E.g. If an action is simple to use and already built I use it - I won't necessarily try to reimplement e.g. upload artifacts step in code. Another thing I noticed is that if you do 1 sophisticated features like build caching and parallelization often becomes completely impractical whereas if you default to 2 you can probably do it with only a moderate amount of commit-push-debug.
