Really, in startup-land it doesn't make much difference in the greater scheme of things. If you have the right idea at the right time, and can execute well, the framework (or lack thereof) is irrelevant. Use what makes you productive - even if it's just PHP. At the end of the day it comes down to experience and personal preference, unless the project has very specific requirements (needs libary x for example). The only legitimate beef we have as developers is when the choice of tools is not our own. If that bugs you, go and do your own thing.
