Absolutely. Think about iOS or Android (native) development. Sure, the ecosystem is quite big, however you do not have the level of flexibility that the web has. You are limited not only in terms of languages, but also certain architectural decisions are bounded by the limits imposed by Framework (the Android or iOS SDK), so there are many decisions that _are already taken_, and for better or worse you have to live with it.

That is probably what I hate the most of front-end development compared with back-end or Mobile. There are too many options, and that certainly does not promote consistency within the project.
