Often, things don't get bloated because the developers are bored, it stems from users requesting features because they are doing it wrong.
Sort of how AWS keeps mucking with Lambdas so that thier customers can keep doing it wrong and paying too much.
Or how doctors just give patients scips if they ask about a drug and it won't incur them any liability.
Over and over I have seen the world shout the praises of a new paradigm that solves a problem...except they totally misunderstand the concept and run in an unintended direction. No one can fight that momentum. So they don't. It happens with nearly everything in tech.
