Yes doing things in super plain ways is hidden power because your ability to express a system goes unexpectedly way up. You say what you mean and that is good power.

Loved your post. I think a lot about those same things when I think about front end vs backend, nice to hear that others do too.

Thanks!

I think, it's important to know why you need something, so I though, let's start with the question why you'd need a backend before you ask how it should look like.
