I'm not sure I'm following what you're saying here. Are you saying that, ultimately, everything boils down to CRUD? Like how humans are really just a very elaborate chemical reaction? Or are you saying businesses are literally CRUD? As in you can charge money to create database records?
Of course everything is just CRUD. That's all a database can do. But writing every piece of software at that level is insanity. When I say pure CRUD I mean software that is literally just a thin veneer over a database. Now that actually is useful sometimes but generally you'll want to be able to write higher level abstractions so you can express your code in a more powerful language than CRUD. Are you really saying you've consulted for businesses that just do CRUD? As in they have meetings about creating, updating and deleting database records?
