Given the lack of bot modularity and flexibility, are scripts the more logical way to go?

This may be part rant, part question:

The painful truth is that for complex, multi-step, processes, bots are horrific!

The inability to move steps into a different order (this is insane) or re-use steps that do the same thing as a step in another automation, is wild.

Lately, I've taken to simply calling scripts, where I can re-use code and create for more modular solutions. Unless the automation is super basic, multi-step automations with varied conditions, are too painful to work with.

Anyone else finding this to be true? Any obvious drawbacks to this method? 

I don't consider going outside of Appsheet as a drawback due to the glaring inadequacies that are currently built-in to the system.
