Personally I think drawers are easily overused,
Yes, I agree. I believe that the intent behind drawers is to offer
convenience, and users should be able to complete any task without them.
(If someone doesn't agree, that's fine; let's not start a debate over

card, offers a much better user experience and is relatively easy to
implement.
