I have the same feeling, except there was actually no debating it. Everyone used the phrase that Angular is the future of web development, even the back-end .NET people who only play with JS when the fancy strikes. Even the product people. I didn't even try to mount a serious inquiry or evaluation - it was like an opinion steamroller. I really hated that feeling, but I was actually okay with the choice at the time because I wanted to learn Angular. I just remember being spooked by the total consensus that it was what we would use.
