I think it's a frog boiling problem.

I start with building my code, then deploying it, then verifying the deployment, a few smoke tests, regression tests, pretty soon all of those concepts are crowding in on the brainspace of monitoring.

It's just one more thing, why slow down to learn a new tool and convince people to use it?

These days it's getting easier for me to requisition a machine to run a dev tool on. That hasn't always been the case, and I'm sure it's not the case everywhere.
