the problem is that MCP isn’t really solving a problem that can’t be solved with existing technology. it’s actually infuriating that access to resources is hidden behind this silly new protocol for agents only as if just giving me API access, which is already well-understood and supported, is insecure or traffic heavy.

plus, the gold rush at my company of adding an MCP server to every resource has turned into a graveyard of wasted effort and abandoned projects.
