This is a valid interpretation of a trap that people can fall in to but there is also a positive interpretation of being an "expert beginner". Developers encounter so many new technologies at such a rapid pace over their careers, especially recently. People who are constantly trying new technologies at a shallow level can have access to more tools to solve problems and be successful in a rapidly changing environment as long as they don't over do it, and narrow their scope to relevant topics that support each other. I think there is a line to walk between falling into a lack of mastery, vs not absorbing new things at a beneficial rate.
