Nah, these are broad strokes you are painting with. Sure some of them needlessly reinvent, but some back end people needlessly reinvent databases and API basics.

But my experience is not the same. It has always been others telling the front-end devs what we "need" to have. I am constantly pushing back with "buttons and links should look and act like buttons and links", "right clicks don't belong in CRUD apps", and "we have a select component that does that". But _BUSINESSES_ want their identity and unique perspective baked into the app.
