I think the reality is that prompt optimization is one of the only "legible benefits" (ie easy to understand why its valuable).

But I think it misses the point of what Dspy "is". It's less that Dspy is about prompt optimization and more that, Dspy encourages you to design your systems in a way that better _enables_ optimization.

You can apply the same principles without Dspy too :)
