It definitely has its drawbacks. There's no enduring satisfaction to specialized positions, likewise jumping between various interests is untenable from a career standpoint. Still, we can indulge in novelty in our own time, or even break the rules at times. The setback I most identify for myself is that it keeps me from investing in "mastering" a domain. The idea itself is attractive, but maybe there's nothing to it except bragging rights. As long as you're always studying something, you're effectively doing the same thing as "mastering".
