Experience seems to be what's holding him back in this case. I've always done it this way soo... As developers and engineers, we have to be ready to change our assumptions and workflows to adapt to new technology.

He says his is better and a lot of people, including myself and a well-publicized recent article, feel the same way. We think your path is the wrong way and will cause you problems as time goes on.
