Yes. And that wouldn't be the fault of the tools. The one wielding the tools is to blame.

Me using a chainsaw to cut a piece of leaf doesn't make the chainsaw "overcomplicated"

I'm wrongly using the right tool for the wrong job. Just like I wouldn't wanna cut a tree log with a hand blade, I wouldn't try to cut a single leaf with a chainsaw.

I think as developers, we've abused our toolsets, thus making our tools appear the bad guy
