SO. Much. This.
Worked at more than a few places where the stack had almost as many layers as it had engineers "because this is how we did it at FAANG..."
Right, and those places also had a few orders of magnitude more engineers on staff to support it all. We do one hundredth of the things FAANG does and we have less than 50 _total_ people in the company; the simpler the stack, the better.
