However, what I find difficult is the fact that when using frontend validation, the code duplicates. As I update code, I've got two places I need to touch, possibly two different roles on my team too, to ensure they're both applying the correct changes. However, I do (mostly) agree on that frontend validation is necessary - Just don't TRUST it ... :)

Yes sure! the same way that adding a column in the database (DATA) also demands some changes in the server (BACK-END) and in any client consuming this information (FRONT-END).
I hear a noise far away that says "Decouple your system building blooooocks!"
Wait I'm hearing something else "*slap* Dependencieeeees!"
Well, there is a difference, because one is duplicating logic, while the other is not really duplicating things, but simply allowing for field to move back and forth - But I see your point ^_^

Well it's like in security at the end, you've different layers (data security, endpoint security, application security network Security...) and at the end you won't be trusting any 😅 and develop a contingency plan "just in case" everything fails.
If we going strict, you don't need to add validations in frontend "as is", just in the backend; But if you do, you earn the benefits (lower cost by lowering the requests and happier customers) so it's not doing job for nothing 😁
Word!! ^_^

I agree, I guess I'm just spoiled with Hyperlambda HTTP requests never using more than 100ms before returning ... ;)
