Yes, we also have our own libraries and tools that manage the switches. It's sort of funny that Cisco is 15 years late to automation and now they are like "Hey I bet you've never seen this before...."

Speak for yourself! ;) I mean, to be fair, it's not *useless*, we just already built up our own, other tooling, that works with other vendors' platforms as well, so, it is not a good fit for us. My colleague did find DNAC useful to push updates to multiple switches at once. We could have rolled our own for that as well, but we figured, hey, why not give it a shot.
