I do exactly same as you described. Use plain servlets with embedded tomcat in application. It all works very well for me.

But now I have to support multiple Spring boot projects. I can't help noticing one thing common in these projects that it is about 10% functionality and 90% of Spring turd nuggets strewn all over project repos.

Feels like today there are some libraries that are only offered for Spring. Other than that I have been happy to do as you do with Jetty.

I'll add that autoconfiguration is a symptom, not a solution.
