I think this is definitely the primary challenge with building great, modern enterprise software. You need the flexibility to meet the various demands of differently shaped businesses but the trade off is complexity.
I personally think that we've come a long way with no code tooling and UI these days which makes these problems easier to tackle well - but it's a constant battle.

Super interesting, sounds like low-code/no-code
Getting stuck with a limiting abstraction is something that's super easy to grasp as a developer. Devs constantly gotta tear down the walls of stuff they've built to fit in new things.
For less technical people however, the focus often shifts to the complexity only. It can be hard to relate to the worship of flexibility, if you haven't felt the pain of building tedious workarounds, squeezing logic into boxes that weren't made for it.
