Is anyone else bored of seeing the endless line of anti-human-scale distributed filesystems?

It's like the engineers building them keep trying to scratch their own itch for a better filesystem that could enable seamless cross-device usage, collaboration, etc. But the engineers only get paid if they express themselves in terms of corporate desires, and corpos aren't looking to pay them to solve those hard problems. So they solve the horizontal scaling problem for the thousandth time, but only end up creating things that requires a full time engineer (or perhaps even a whole team) to use. Hooray, another centralizing "distributed" filesystem.
