constructing an application which consists of updating a table and persisting it in a database for business tomorrow should not be a high art.
Most enterprise / business applications are not much more than glorified form fill-in, and the simple ones don't really deserve the multiple layers of abstraction. If you don't believe me, recall the relief of being able to "just edit the damn data" in the django admin tool when the regular application is misbehaving.
