I think what you are really arguing for is more people that properly understand (and implement) DNS.

A smaller organisation should have a much easier time implementing internal DNS and it should be pretty damn stable and reliable. Unfortunately a lot of people dont properly understand it (not that you need to be a complete expert - just competent) and hence we always have the mantra "Its always DNS" when something goes down.

Usually complicated beskoke systems engineered for internal use are better left for really large orgs that can hire the talent to maintain and properly implement it (and have the manpower to have enough people in the first place always on staff to maintain it when the first person gets sick or something)
