Agree with your complexity vs effort graphs but that is exactly where no-code tools have worked well for me. Example: Our CRM has a very complex data model and Salesforce UI is hard to use. With a no code tool, I can wire up a simple UI and use their connector to populate the fields and allow folks to make changes in a much simpler / somewhat automated way. This saves us a few hours per week and it took me 3-5 hours to build. I don't really need VCS, code reviews etc. here. If I ever had a bunch of related use cases like this, I would then want to invest in a yes-code solution to solve the combined set of use cases.
