Usually, when you are coding a full API in Django or Flask you find yourself putting additional dependencies in, and this will impact performance and maintainability. Those dependencies won't help you get rid of the "opinion" or "initial purpose" of the frameworks: to build websites, and this will also impact maintainability and performance.
