Re:If DSPy is so great, why isn't anyone using it?

Almost all the points are not about what DSPy is mainly supposed to offer.
What's supposedly great at is automatic optimization, for everything else... who the hell puts Python in production just to make some API calls?
There are "frameworks" available in all the better languages, but the constructs behind are not that complicated. And why does DSPy even try to compete with LangChain/Graph/crap?

I think automatic optimization is valuable, but it's not what Dspy "is"; you can see this consistently through @lateinteraction's tweets.
And hopefully it's clear enough from the post: I'm not necessarily suggesting people use Dspy, just that there are important lessons to take with you, even if you don't use it :)
