Totally fair point. For stable, known workloads, you can get really far with something lightweight on a single machine. The challenge comes when you need fault tolerance, scaling, and delivery guarantees without constantly jumping in to fix things. Often heard from data teams talking about data peaks that they cannot predict as easily. But yes, a lot of existing tools make you pay a high-efficiency cost for that. At GlassFlow we are trying to hit that sweet spot...efficient but still resilient.
