But it's the truth - so why not admit it?

  What is truth? That they make decisions just to play with new toy? It's their problem, really, not a thing to be proud of, not an argument to be mentioned in article.

    In my opinion you're seriously underestimating how much "I like this language" and "I'm comfortable with this language" is involved when decided how to code up new projects - especially at companies without an approved-language policy. I also didn't get the impression they were "proud of it" - they were simply honest in acknowledging it as a factor.

      Really, I born yesterday and has never started new projects yet. Sometimes people should get rid of "I'm comfortable with this language" just to try out new things. And this argument is good for side-projects.
