While I agree with the cynical view of humans and shortcuts, I think it’s actually the “automated” part of the process to blame. If you develop an app, there’s only so much you can code. However if you start with a framework, now you’ve automated part of your job for huge efficiency gains, but you’re also starting off with a much bigger app and likely lots of functionality you aren’t really using
If you're not using the functionality it's probably not significantly contributing to the required CPU/GPU cycles. Though I would welcome a counter example.
