Yeah I was recently being told to go back and learn my basics in SoCs and stoics because I challenge the notion of blindly following patterns and abstractions.

Abstraction create layers and can lead to obfuscation if the wrong thing is being abstracted. This "right" thing can be extra hard to identify, so this is where YAGNI creates conflict with Dry or SoC.
