It isn't negative towards the technology. Blockchains solve one problem: distributed consensus among mutually distrustful peers. If there's any existing trust structure, then a blockchain isn't what you need.
In situations where you already have trust but want immutability and cryptographic assurances, you may want to look into Merkle DAGs or other authenticated data structures, which are not blockchains at all. https://cs.umd.edu/~mwh/papers/gpads.pdf
