This. Almost every chart try to be helpful and hide the upstream configuration of the application. Inevitably, you will sooner or later need to change a config. Now it’s not enough to read the documentation of the application, you also need to map this parameter into whatever values the helm chart translated it to. I wouldn’t even call it an abstraction, since it’s only read in a single location, it’s just a dumb and pointless translation. Total nonsense.
