Annotations are great until something breaks.

Fundamentally they are an abstraction over a rats nest of code (of a specific version), library dependencies and configuration. Gods help you when something breaks, the abstraction leaks and you are presented with a glimpse of the underlying complexity that is now yours to tinker with.
