Thanks for clarifying my point, since I was a bit brash.

The argument you make regarding learning a new language is solid, and I think it can also be applied to new libraries, design patterns or even just coding standards. Now that I think about it, the backwards judgement -> rationalization strategy is one of the more pressing problems facing society, and I was guilty of it just as much by judging the OP first and rationalizing second.
