I get where you're coming from, but I think that folks often underestimate the maintenance burden of additional components in their system.

Sure, if your use case requires it, use Redis for sessions or RabbitMQ for queues. But you can also use a library with postgres, or even write the 40 lines of code yourself.

Each component has its own debugging requirements and tooling. Each component adds a bunch of complexity. Sometimes it's worth it, sometimes it's not. It's not as clear-cut as you're making it be. There are pros and cons to both alternatives.
