Amplify helped us get an app up and running in a very short time. We took that route because integrating auth was so easy, then found out how easy everything else was - until it wasn't. We abandoned Amplify and took another route for exactly the reasons you highlight here.
For the past 10 years, I had the opportunity to work in various types of projects, in a number of industries. In that time I have developed some thoughts about software and the process of creating it.
That is exactly what happened with us. Authentication was a big selling point for us since we not only set up Cognito with Amplify CLI, but also used the Amplify React library that provides a login screen that fully integrates with Cognito.
It is incredible what you can achieve in one hour with Amplify. But after one month, you'll find it is more of a hinderer.
