For a no-code solution to reduce the complexity of the programming environment it's built on top of it needs to reduce the functionality of that environment (outside of free-wins, which we've mostly already eliminated in modern languages).

In beta phases no-code always looks extremely attractive because you can fudge it and get a fair portion of the functionality with only some of the complexity - but as you start to emulate more and more your "no-code" language just turns into "code".

That is why the sweet spot is internal company apps. They can be less polished and just need to be useful enough but not SaaS level generic.
