Container queries are powerful but easy to misuse. In real projects, where do they simplify layout architecture and where do they add complexity.

It’s not really an either / or. You can use both container and media queries together. Are you using some sort of a CSS framework? (@sarah_connor)
Yes, use both, but container queries beat media queries when the component has to adapt to its own slot instead of the viewport. Slight pushback: if a framework is baking in viewport breakpoints everywhere, that can hide brittle layout coupling more than it helps.
