No, this is how everyone incompetent designs systems

Layers of generic APIs required to be 1000x more complex than would be required if they were just coupled to the layer above

Changing requirements means tunneling data through many layers

Layers are generic, which means either you tightly couple your APIs for the above-layer's use case, or your API will limit the performance of your system

Everyone who thinks they can design systems does it this way, then they end up managing a system that runs 10x slower than it should + complaining about managers changing requirements 'at the last minute'
