you can take 2 paths when building systems that will serve as a platform for other stuff:
a) solve the hard problems in your system so the stuff that rides on top gets that for free
b) skip the hard problems and make your system simple and fast
if you go A then yeah its more work and its more complex and fiddly and breaky, but the people who build their stuff on top of your system dont have to solve that problem for themselves anymore.
if you go B then yeah, your life is easier and you can make your system more bulletproof and speedy and easy to implement, but that problem you decided not to solve is still going to be a problem for a portion of the people who might want to use your system to run their stuff.
both paths are equally valid, but one requires the users that choose your system to be much much more skilled than the other.
and i dunno about yall, but im dumb as all hell so as an end user i would pick the system that solves the hard problems for me.
the pro move is to take system a and ignore all the provided affordances in favor of reimplementing everything yourself like it's system b, then blame the system
