If I'm getting your point right, I agree! If you have the workflow / durable execution primitive to depend on (a durable function is guaranteed to complete executing), then there are a lot of pieces of distributed systems stacks that you no longer need to use. Your durable code is automatically backed by the event sourcing, timers, task queues, transfer queues, etc that Temporal internally uses to provide the guarantee, so that you don't need to build them yourself.
