No, nobody understands the app because it is simply impossible to hold in your head 5-10 years worth of development by 100+ people across a complex product with complicated use cases and customer need (unless you were there the whole time and you are a very hard worker) By the time you create the correct abstractions, customer needs and the market will have changed and thus your abstractions are now incorrect |

Sure, if you have project like facebook then you problably won't get away from complexity, and you NEED a tool to help you manage that.
But at the same time, if you assume you need such tool from the beginning, chances are you will over-complicate your solution and it will become a self fulfilling prophecy of trying to tackle complexity by adding more complexity
