I don’t disagree, just placing emphasis on a different aspect.

In an ideal world there is a tool that moves your schema into an analytical store “as is” with a single click. Then the same tool lets you add arbitrary transformations of the data. Surprisingly I have not come across such a tool. It is earthier “one click to move your data” or “any transformation you want” but only after a significant upfront investment :(

I think I didn’t articulate myself very well on my reply. I actually wanted to say that I agree with you and emphasise again the need for educating users for the complexity of these projects.

What you describe has been pitched by many different products for different parts of the data platform. Fivetran for example claims to do that for the extraction and loading part, good old Informatica was offering the ETL in a graphical interface etc.

The problem that many teams ended up having is the explosion of the tooling needed by data teams.
