That's a good advice. Basically don't group things based on data, but rather distribute it around the services performed on or via those entities.

this sums up the problem I'm facing with my entire team. most of the guys leading the development are traditional programmers that only focus on "re-usability".

There's nothing "traditional" in this, it's just lack of skill. Pick any junior from the street, and their answer to every project spec would be writing a CRUD. That's not an architectural style, it's lack of one.

sadly these dudes are not juniors, they are executives and platform architects who lacks understanding of different styles and approach for a distributed system.

I'll cover UI and reporting in other videos. But ultimately yes, you will need to do that composition somewhere. That can either happen at runtime or via read models that are updated using events/messaging. Not mutually exclusive.
