Even just checking the time on phone makes me feel sick. I'm using Apple cues from the day they released. It helps, but I still cannot respond to Whatsapp messages. I envy people who can use their phones, laptops during a ride.

Exactly, if your goal is to reach somewhere fast, you should use the car. Bike, if you can't effort.

But if you're a junior developer, you won't be able to gain the most vital skills.

I think a better analogy is a marathon. If you're training for a marathon, you have to run. It won't help if you take the car. You will reach the finish line with minimal effort, but you won't gain any necessary muscles.

Yes, that’s the hard truth. Failure is part of the success not the opposite of it.

I totally agree with you. The "smart" solutions always end up with more technical debt. I really like the following quote on this matter:

Any fool can make something complicated. It takes a genius to make it simple.

Yes, I was expecting to see it in frontpage before I shared. Apparently majority of hackers see this off-topic like you mentioned.

For anyone interested in more detail and the full story, Bad Blood[1] by John Carreyrou is a really gripping book. It was also in Bill Gates' list in 2018[2][3].

So, can we say that it is kind of centralized?

What I learned from 20 years of development experience is to follow the below in that specific order.

1. YAGNI - do not try to solve a problem which is not yours

2. SOLID - try to build in an extensible way, so you can later refactor it easily

3. DRY - it is time to modularize when you start copy/pasting

So, I can say that you are on the right track.
