Is RAG even necessary here? Minimal information like a couple of price list with job times and opening hours should easily fit into any context window, right? It's not like he's dumping entire service manuals into the vector database here...

It most likely isn't, but it seems like this project was more for learning purposes than for anything else. In that case, why not go for the "production-ready", "highly scalable" solution? I sometimes do the same for my personal projects. I over-architect them not because it's necessary, but because I want to get my hands dirty and learn something new.

Yeah, just stuff the entire website and pricing table into the context window.

Completely agree. I think the whole thing can fit in context.

Yeah, this architecture is completely unnecessary.
