In the end I think it will boil down to a question of anti fragility or resiliency VS. efficiency.
And there is actually imho no black and white answer. Take a current, very small freelance client of mine. I built them a homepage based on Kirby CMS. Hosted on uberspace.de. On the same shared server there is Matomo being hosted for basic stats.
Another client I was involved in went another way. They had their site built by a team of designers with webflow and are using Google Analytics.
In both cases the decision makes sense given the conditions and constraints of the respective projects.
Personally I would have not recommend to use webflow, but that was not my call to make. For GA I provided a pro/con evaluation and the client decided to go with GA (not my primary recommendation). I still think for his use case at the time a sensible decision.
