Pretty much nails it for me. Being up to date with new technologies and tools is important, and once it became officially endorsed I (and many others) had to run with it.
It was about 3 months I tried it last time, but at that time it was still slow, it ignored ~/.pip/pip.conf and also had no "proxy" CLI option like pip does.
I hope it have changed now but early on it also had some strange preference to environment variables rather than CLI options, which I find odd for an application aimed for command line.
I voiced my concerns about these issues, because why not? If I as a developer release something and intend to continue maintain it, I have a responsibility towards the users that depend on my creation. Old-fashioned stance perhaps...
