		I used to be very confused about MVC and MVCC and what have you---I can't keep design patterns straight in my head (personal limitation)---I finally went down a rabbit hole of trying to figure it out from scratch. Like, why do we even need any of that stuff? I blogged about it [1] and spoke about it [2] and the post even got some HN love [3]. The opening parable concludes with this... `Multitudes of sworn "Rails developer"s, "Laravel developer"s, "Django developer"s, "Next.js developer"s and suchlike throng the universe… Why? ... ... Once upon a time, there was one. WebObjects. Now they are numberless.` The occasional email and DM gives me succour that I am not alone in my confusion. Even people who've "grown up" using traditional MVC frameworks took a minute to self-check and felt "huh, looks like I can look harder at this thing that I do".
