I think it is fine. There are scenarios were you need distributed and there are scenarios that you don't.
IMO, distributed software is more practical for working development than for technical reasons.
We all know from basic stuff that performing software comes from single structures that does not require packing and unpacking data
But scaling large applications is hard, and it was much more expensive back then.
Now that we overreacted to microservices we will overreact to monoliths again. And we will bounce many more times until AI take our jobs and do the loop itself
