I think you can get a bike that'll do everything, just not at >50kph! I'm happy to have a compromise bike that'll get me up anything and thereby live the #sluglife on the road.
If one absolutely need to pedal at 60kph or whatever but also wants to ride up proper gravel hills then the only option is the venerable triple. But I think most people would just be better off with two bikes.
