That is a great analogy. Hope you don't mind if I steal it? I've noticed this on HN, too many people are bleeding-edge, cutting-edge and seem to forget that best tools for the job are what's in your toolbox. You might not carry around a power miter but you will probably have a small hand-saw. PHP is a lot of things, but it's also taught at the local community college, and it's quick to pick-up even without collegiate education. That vastly widens my possible talent pool, my rapid development process, or training of my employees.
