Agreed.

A Django-specific skillset I found very important is to know where that limit/line of the admin sits - you can push it very far, but there's absolutely a point where it becomes unmaintainable and more costly than building it yourself. The line itself can be a bit of a moving target depending on the project though.

The Django admin is simultaneously one of the greatest tools of the past two decades while also being a massive footgun if you're not careful.
