This is basically the clickbait in the wider world affecting software development, even though it might not look like it. Boiled down to the essentials, we are telling each other the software version of "Here's How to Lose 10 Pounds in Time for Summer." way more often than "How To Balance Diet and Exercise to Remain Healthy Over A Decade".
But it's up to us to those of us who like more discussion to reverse these trends. In that vein -- do you have good sources that typically talk about tradeoffs with technology rather than promoting a specific one? Kleppmann's book on Data Intensive applications is one I have found in the past.
