That's not how I see it. Imagine for a moment that we had an epidemic where every family just had to build a five-story mansion complete with service buildings to feel like they keep up with the Joneses.
That's what I see a lot of in software right now.
I'm merely suggesting that maybe a regular two-story family house is enough. Maybe even one story, depending on needs.
Note that only the first sentence of my comment said "don't automate". The other eight described a way to automate with less complexity when you have to.
