Yeah, hire specialists who'll install the latest trendy libraries and write shit code for you. It'll be cheap and good enough for the stupid cunts who buy your flaky barely beta software.

Don't consider hiring developers who understand how all the layers mesh and can plan for their quirks.

If it's working for you, brother, then I hope it works well.

If you change requirements frequently enough to prioritize those changes above your fundamental design concerns you failed in your due diligence and in your project specification.
