1. Without good development practices due to lack of Experience or plain old Rational Thought the only possible outcome is Operational Deficiency.
Every Best Practice is context-dependent, thus having Deficient Resources makes them inapplicable in certain cases. Some teams can really suck with the same tech stack when others flourishing using it.
2. Basic organizational anti-patterns, like Mushroom Management, and broken retrospective lead to rediculous outcomes.
Even plain old Micro-services and Micro-frontends can be a basis of Stovepiping and applying Mushroom Management. Usually, again, due to Lack of Competence and Sheer Hubris.
3. “Premature Optimization” only used in context of over-engineering by those who didn’t read the book, but use Halo-effect cognitive bias to project compensated qualities onto the term itself. There are a lot of Psychological Compensational Needs under the hood.
It’s like “Why Agile has nothing to do with Discipline ?” or “Why senior developers turning the project into a sandbox due to the lack of self-fulfillment ?” or “Why most of the MVP’s lack Concise and Validated Definition of Viability ?”
Complex doesn’t mean Hard or Expensive. Simple doesn’t mean Easy or Cheap.
Too often “over-engineering” is just an organizational and psychological issue and not an Engineering one.
Stop operating on Feelings.
Six Sense of the Fifth Body Anchor Point is not a reliable Key Performance Indicator.
