You don't need to use them in "big enough problems". I've used them with great success in a microservice architecture: had to consume some events, do some processing and spit out some data into Kafka. Absolute straightforward code, I could just focus on the "processing" part and ignore the boring plumbing. I'm sure that a lot of apps fit this pattern really well: consume data, processing, spit new data.
