Im not the OP but I’d chime in: first and foremost it’s on the resume.

Of course im not bashing event sourcing altogether but right now resume boosting seems to be the driving force to apply it everywhere.

And this comes from my experience at my current workplace. Event sourcing has brought so much unnecesary complexity to a an older system and it’s not even implemented properly. The engineers who took the initiative padded their resumes then went on to greener pastures while leaving a giant mess behind.
