I've never regretted choosing the tools that were intended for hobbyists and kiddies. They laughed at me for using Python. Of course there are good reasons for choosing the grown-up tools, but also bad reasons, and the bad reasons translate directly into costs in time and effort, lack of adaptability, and so forth. These things are normalized by the structure of the organization, but remain painfully visible to the astute observer on the sidelines. And to the users.
