Looking over the rest of the conversation here, there's a clear bias in a lot of areas to build services when a library would suffice.

You're agreeing with the article, and seem to be suggesting that your agreement represents a universal viewpoint, but it does not seem to.

Yes, we are both saying "use a library when possible". I am mystified by the need to write or read such an article. It seems akin to "don't use an airplane to go to the corner store for a dozen eggs".
