Sounds like bike-shedding to me. Eg. You start with solving trivial problems instead of the hard problems.

Usually the first thing that is decided is what framework to use, often by a non technical person that herd from a friend that is was good. Rather then having the engineers sit down and think about what are the biggest challenges, and what is the best framework suited to solve the hardest problems.

OP never once stated that they started with those problems. What makes you think the engineering challenges weren't tackled first?
