Nice thought, but I've never started learning a framework because I wanted to use it, I started learning it because everybody else in my organization was using it, and I had to learn it to keep up. Stop learning frameworks means stop using frameworks - which really just means write your own custom framework to do what the frameworks do.

And, in my experience, you have to do all of that on your own time, because there are JIRA tickets to close this "sprint".
