To be clear we have to make the distinction between Op-Amp an IC Op-Amp.
It is much easier to use an IC Op-Amp in a gain stage vs design from the ground up with discrete transistors, resistors, capacitors, diodes, etc.
An IC Op-Amp can contain a dozen or more transistors. All the designer needs to do is add a couple resistors and a cap or two around it using the application note (cheat sheet) provided by the chip manufacturer.
