I'm with you, but motivation to really learn a system tanks when there's something else on the horizon. And what happens when new-thing appears really great for the first 1-2 years, but goes downhill and we're back to asking for its replacement only 5 years after its release? That tells me we're still chasing 'new', but instead of a positive 'new', it's a negative one.
This was also reinforced constantly by people claiming you'll be unemployable if you aren't riding the 'new' wave or doing X amount of things in your spare time.
It's a natural consequence of an industry that moves quickly. If we want a more stable bedrock, we MUST slow down.
