Oh, sure, but people are always the hard bit. I'm just used to the tech being... if not reasonable, at least confining itself to single-digit numbers of distinct flavours of bullshit.

I think it's a function of whether there are people with a high asshole : technical skill ratio who think they understand what you do. When I've worked on e.g. recommendation or natural language processing I had a lot of very unhelpful "Why can't you just??" interactions.

In contrast when I worked in video transcoding they were mostly willing to accept that it was black magic and didn't really feel the need to stick their oar in so much.

Yep need to up the black magic ratio! It's all I can do not to crash the website then be like "be nicer to me goddamit"
