You’re absolutely right that this product is heavy on the convenience side of the tradeoff.

> Was it surprising to you too that you'd have users who wanted this location on the continuum?

I’m still working on the “have users” piece, but there were signals for wanting more simplicity/convenience in conversations that I had with data scientists. I also felt as a data scientist that existing deployment solutions sometimes felt over-engineered for flexibility and reproducibility, at the cost of convenience. I'm exploring the other end of the continuum with Convect -- how opinionated can we get with ML workflows to simplify and still be useful?
