Spring boot is tipped as being the default go to when making a new spring application as it makes set up easier and automatically wires in common dependencies.
I am yet in industry to see spring-boot used in the manner advertised.
Factually and concisely, what are the disadvantages that are faced by developers on adoption of Spring boot as the de facto Spring go to?
The advantages of Spring Boot question shows advantages of which I agree there are many, but believe there should be a rounder view.
An example non opinion based point would be:
Spring boot may unnecessarily increase the deployment binary size with unused dependencies.
Not being able to customize logging easily as shown here.
This is a very opinion based question but I believe that the biggest disadvantage that you might encounter is using it or Spring at all without understanding what value it gave to you or your project. It might be completely not aligned with your requirements and it is possible that you will configure everything by yourself at some point.
Let me comment bullet points that you liked in the question.
