I feel this way about many of the more popular trends over the last decade or so.

A technology becomes popular because a really large organization uses it to solve problems that only really exist st that scale. Then they talk about how it works and many tend to take that as an indicator that the solution is ideal, regardless of context.

GraphQL, react, Tailwind, NextJS, and many others. They solve specific problems and those may be problems you have. No tool is a universally useful solution though, it takes real experience and knowledge to discern what your problems are and how to best tackle them.
