In 3-4 years, nothing anyone is doing today will matter. It is rapidly evolving, and I'd rather sit back, do what I know, and let it all fall out one way or other other, then learn what I need to if I haven't retired by then.
For younger people, being on the bleeding edge of new things matters, but it really doesn't for us old folk. We know how to learn. We'll learn it when it matters. So long as we have work until then, I am not going to waste my energy re-skilling every 6 months to use a tech that is nowhere near stable with an entirely unclear future.
