I can't agree. Having used LaTeX for about a year now, it's got all the fragmentation and design-by-committee flaws of Linux, but much worse. There are so many packages, and many are completely incompatible with each other. And while TeX itself is pretty simple, LaTeX is much bigger, and using any libraries on top of it pretty much requires hours of searching tex.so for obscure fixes and workarounds, which are often counter-intuitive. I'd rather hire someone who would have the sense to pay $20 for a month's worth of InDesign, learn how to use it (which also has a steep learning curve), and make what they need. This shows me they have prudence and can prioritize and manage their time properly, and aren't swayed by public opinion on what the best tool for the job is, but make unbiased comparisons for themselves.
