In my experience, "you don't need *MQ, just use Kafka" is a way worse problem.

Trying to explain the distinction between an event streaming platform and a distributed message queue to your enterprise architect is an exercise that no one should have to go through.

If you have to explain that distinction, are you really speaking to an "enterprise architect" ?
