Fully agreed that there are limitations, but I still think calling it an out-dated approach is unfair.

I don't see a simple, low on boilerplate, one-size-fits-all solution for reusable and separated components on Android at the moment. I love that the community didn't settle with just Activities or just Fragments and is actively trying new stuff (after all, if you look at React or Vue or even freaking backbone.marionette, the web is in a much better spot right now regarding UI composition), but right now the right solutions always seems to take the path of least resistance and use whatever mix of pattern that gets you to your goal as easily as possible.
