I'm not sure about it being "so hard", but it's extra stuff to deploy, maintain, monitor, and pay for. Very small teams benefit from keeping things small and simple. Again, if you actually need Kafka, then it's worth it. If you just need something similar, but can deal with the limitations of redis streams, then it's an easy choice.
