These are excellent points and very interesting food-for-thought, the 'organizational thinking' that leads to the tools being terribly complex and steep to learn for individuals.

But don't these tools have product managers, and don't product managers create tools to serve customers?

The only cynical viewpoint that I can think of for artificial (or lazy) complexity is consulting dollars.

Google does consulting now?

They do, but I think most of their consulting is driven by a desire to enable other organizations on their tech (hence buying more).

So definitely more helpful than the "obfuscate + delay = profit" model of most consulting agencies.

Now?

If you spend enough they always have.
