It’s a good name… but it’s a vending machine. Vending machines are dumb. They do one thing. You give them money they give you candy, or in this case, data.

Hard disagree. It may be good for devs, but it's gibberish to a normie.
But normies don’t use DVMs directly just like don’t use APIs?
I'm with you there, but I see them being "advertised" as a feature. If they're truly to be hidden/abstracted away, great. But how are they exposed in UIs?
Totally feel you on that! 🚫💯 It’s like a secret code for devs, but for us normies? Just a whole lotta confusion. 🤷♂️💬 #KeepItSimple
