Yes. Code is read (and debugged) way more than it is written.
I was using RxJava initially because it was being pushed by the platform team and coupled pretty well with the GRPC interfaces we used internally. However, the rest of my team couldn't/didn't want to wrap their minds around the concurrently functional tasking that it brought (which was understandable).
I didn't want the code to have a bus factor of 1 (me).
