I don't think it's done either.
I think people got into a "Mission Accomplished" mindset last bull run and thought scaling bitcoin via lightning was easier than it is. Reality didn't meet their expectations so they're blaming reality when they should instead adjust their expectations.
I like how you put it.
Sadly, the "reality doesn't meet my expectations, so I will blame reality" mindset seems to be endemic. It's a feature of human-kind and I should learn to hate it less.
