That presumes that Y-way is inherently advantageous to X-way. There's still plenty of sites that can and are market leaders using an out-of-flavor framework like rails/spring mvc/.net. New frameworks do not necessarily supersede old ones - they are usually a response to new use cases that have cropped up. These use cases may or may not be important to your business.
- stealthmodeclan 8y agoIf new developers start at Y-way, we can assume they'll add more advantages to Y-way like improved tooling etc..., so maybe Y-way will eventually surpass the X-way. In tech, it's not what one particular developer thinks but the consensus among the contributors which decides which one out of X or Y will end up having more benefits.

It's always the people using the tools that decide whether X or Y will have more benefit. You don't easily get contributors without first having users. Or did I misunderstand your point of view?
