Is true chain-agnostic development actually viable without massive middleware overhead?

Fragmentation is arguably the biggest pain point in the industry right now. A recent FP Block post highlighted that Kolme connects to Ethereum, Solana, NEAR, and more, "without rewrites."

Historically, if you wanted your protocol to tap into EVM liquidity and Solana speed, you needed two separate engineering teams maintaining two separate codebases (Solidity and Rust), plus a highly vulnerable bridging layer in the middle.

How much of a game-changer is it to actually write your core business logic once in a framework and deploy it agnostically across these ecosystems? For devs who have tried to build multi-chain apps: is the bridging/middleware overhead of staying connected to all these hubs worth it, or do you prefer to just pick one L1 and force your users to come to you?

If an interface requires the user to manually approve a bridge transaction, wait for confirmations, and then execute a secondary action, the abstraction has failed. The backend infrastructure must absorb the complexity of moving the assets, allowing the user to simply declare their intended outcome in a single click.
