Your ideas are like a whole new way of looking at programming; a new paradigm if you will. People like patterns and rules, as long as there are people I think there'll be paradigms in programming - a paradigm is after all just a way of looking at the world. I see where you're coming from (that you should remain flexible in the face of change, and not become rigid and unthinkingly follow rules set down by others), but you can't escape forming opinions about the right way to proceed in a given discipline - I think we're hardwired for it.
