Java: Pattern Abuse
Answer
Leads to unnecessary complexity and maintenance challenges.
Overusing abstract factories can obscure the logic of your application, making it hard for new developers to understand and maintain the code. In simple applications, this pattern might add layers that you don't need, increasing the overhead without providing tangible benefits.
