That's interesting, but wonder if they really needed the overarching

 I wonder how you see “complexity” in a unified approach to things, as
opposed to the old different-mechanism-for-each-connection-type legacy
thinking.

Good engineering is about minimising complexity as far as is practical,
which reduces design and ongoing maintenance, management and staff
reeducation costs. Fewer possible bugs, as well.
Better mousetraps everywhere, but most of them add nothing to the
sum of usefulness.
