What you need may be “pipeline +Unix commands” only

You forget that using more developers means more headcount, and more headcount means I have more responsibility as a manager.

These crazy complex solutions also look a lot more difficult on the slides than the simple 3 layer architecture that’s often shown to me.

With something that simple, and requiring so few people, how am I ever going to convince my clients to pay me multiple millions of dollars for it.

I guess you should sell them the choice of either the big complex thing written by a large team for $2.3 MM, or the lean highly-optimized solution written by a handful of elite "10X" developers for $1.9 MM. (Of course the 10X developers are in high demand and very expensive.)
