IMO, this is the value of Temporal. You certainly can write your own system—but wouldn't you rather focus on writing code that directly addresses the unique value that you or your company offers?

Build vs buy is hard. Generally you're correct, but then when your tool gets bought out by eg. Splunk (or whomever) and they raise the price 2-5x, you're kind of stuck.

Every 3rd party dependency is a complexity you must manage.

Every in house system is a complexity you must manage.

Nothing is free.
