   I feel like people often use "when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail" to criticize things which are more accurately "when you have a nail gun, you're gonna use a lot more nails than screws"

     There's some overlap of course. If you make a really really good nail gun, someones probably gonna use it to jam in a few screws.

     But sometimes architectural decisions are just a byproduct of having a really good nail gun.
