Distributed transactions are hard. And if queue data is the source of truth for something then they must be durable. All that said, when traffic volume, payload size, or throughout demands something specialized then it makes sense to do it.

If I'm building one shed then maybe I only need 5 tools, while a shed factory might use 100. Context matters.
