Honestly, this is so much better than those cases when the codebase is an absolute fucking nightmare are the senior dev doesn't see it. Instead they gaslight you into thinking that this is actually best practice.
Best practice for job security
I work in OT. The number of "best practice" IT mantras that companies mindlessly pick up and then slavishly follow to the detriment of their mainly-OT business is alarming.
Make your own damn best practice that suits your business best, don't copy and paste something from a megacorp. Sure, include elements from megacorp's best practice if they are applicable, but don't be a slave to the entirety of it.
