Totally, spending time developing the muscles to build more advanced RAG workflows is first and foremost a data modeling and data engineering challenge -- developing the hierarchical data modeling expertise, taking advantage of the structure and flexibility of the document model, chunking, and real time memory requirements combined with the power of vector embeddings and advanced query and filter capabilities is a skill that will last, irrespective of the popular model, service provider, cloud platform or framework du jour.

As a user, why would I bother to learn these things, aside from a hobby? If it works well, I expect a product to come along soon.

You wouldn't bother as consumer. The advice above was for developers I think
Where do you start learning these workflows, as in do you have any you would recommend?
