I never understood using .NET projects to physically separate architecture layers. Are the projects reused? Are they packaged and published individually? If you said no to any of these questions then just use folders. Your developers can be trusted to respect logical boundaries.

Hiring for senior .NET developers in the UK is so damn hard. There are 5-6 big companies that all compete for a fairly small talent pool. Yes, this includes remote and hybrid models being an option. It still really hard to find good talent.
