Ok. I can understand that problem on a 30 person eng-team at med/large company.

It makes sense why nextjs kills my soul every time I touch it. For side-projects it's just me, for startups it's a few people where the entire premise of the company may change monthly, not to mention the API and product assumptions.

Perhaps it's just the millennial in me. Intentional frontend/backend bounded expertise is rather silly in a fledgling company.

We're talking multiple multiple business units spread out multiple disciplines. Funnily enough we can settle on a common backend language and frontend language and even frameworks in my org but apparently on HN everyone wants to be special? I would love to see how many features got shipped a week with that setup.
