As turns out a lead developer can't unilaterally change the CTO. Not sure how it works for you. I can control tech, direction, etc. or move on to another job.

As turns out a lead developer can't unilaterally change the CTO. Not sure how it works for you. I can control tech, direction, etc. or move on to another job. I chose to work with the CTO/Team to figure out a solution everyone could live with. I even chose a more annoying solution (Packer) initially just to make sure people felt comfortable and avoid changing things anymore than I had to.
