I think this is par for the course in that subfield.

Part of it is the speed at which things change, both in the software ecosystems and in the change requests to sites. The reliance on comprehensive frameworks (which often need tons of workarounds and glue anyway) also reduces people's desire or experience in actually constructing good abstractions.

Compound this with the fact that startup environments generally don't care about anything other than shipping & pivoting, and want to defer all aspects of longevity.

The same problems exist all over the place, but I think are pretty prominent in these situations in particular.
