MikroTik feels like rolling your own linux router box, a bit overkill and high maintenance.

It's definitely overkill, but what is a homelab if not overkill? It's not really high maintenance, though. Once it's in and running you'll never have to touch it.

Until you do and then you’ve forgotten how and what to do.

Not to mention software updates to ensure your credentials aren't leaked in plaintext...

Isn't this true for any advanced technology?

With Ubiquity, it wasn't, and you get a nice mobile app to see the status of everything.

The MSP I work at maintain some 500 MikroTik devices, I wouldn't call it particularly high maintenance. Once they're set up they'll just keep working. I've been auto upgrading my stuff at home with beta software for the last 4 years without encountering any issues. (ROS6, 7 is another story).
