I really appreciate the thoughts here. There's definitely a spectrum and it's not the same spectrum for every organization because each organization's needs are continually evolving and in different directions. For early iterations, NIHS is a good rule to follow as it helps with speed to market. That said, as a platform matures and grows I think forking or doing it yourself is perfectly reasonable as business logic often outgrows available abstractions.
