I think that level of heat in Mexican food is very regional. When I lived in Ohio it was available either of two ways: bland or melt-your-flesh. Where I live, they usually ask. The other day a place had five optional levels of fire. Kudos for getting it so dialed in.
It's not the heat. Heat seldom kills the flavor of the food. It's the rest of the seasonings. I like chicken that tastes like chicken, not the seasonings. If all I can taste is chili powder, oregano, and cilantro, they are doing it wrong. Half a can of chili powder and some hot peppers do not make Mexican food, they make nasty food.
Oh my, we are sooo apart on this. I agree that too much heat shocks your taste buds into PTSD. But IMO chicken is the tofu of meat. It takes seasonings well, but without them there's little left but white protein in a fibrous package.

One of my pet peeves is trying to replace meat with veggies. Veggies are delicious (well, not Brussel sprouts) and can be made into delicious things. The only reason people try to make them taste like meat is because they're too stuck in their ways. Of course, don't mistake the use of veggies as a vehicle for something else as trying to make it taste like meat. Breaded and fried cauliflower with some good Buffalo sauce could be seen as an imitation chicken wing, but it isn't. It is just a vehicle for crispy breading and sauce.
Not that I use Chrome much, but when I do:
