So don't evolve your project based on HTTP stack more than an HTTP stack may allow you to. Suddenly, you'd like to have real-time comm? Don't add WebSockets, simply because they fit right above the whole of your stack based on HTTP. Use TCP. There's a very gentle balance between using what you've already got and introducing a set of newer entities into the system; and sadly this is not always that clear, which one you should use.

Yes and that's quite obvious. However, frameworks are stil a limiting fact in code. If I use a framework it won't let me do certain things. Which means I have to hack around or introduce newer entities/dependencies. A balance must be found, in one of the earlier examples, a quick hack was easier.
