Doing it primarily because multiple layers suck when used for their intended purpose may very well be useful, but it's not a sign of health.

This is like having three layers of assembly that are all horrible to write and are built one on top of the other, all operating at roughly the same "level" of the hardware/software stack, and then coming along and writing C for the third one, which will in turn generate the second, and that, the first, which will, finally, actually generate something a processor understands.

Whatever demand there is for this isn't this product or company's fault, but it's definitely a sign that something's not right. Config primitives being driven by orchestration scripts being driven by orchestration scripts being driven by orchestration scripts.

The product may be entirely fine, but the situation is ridiculous.
