Everything else is selfish and delusional!
I hate when that happens. I choose the applications in my workflow for specific reasons or for some unique value that they offer. It's one thing when a developer moves on from a project and leaves it in an unfinished state. It's an entirely different story when the developer basically throws up his hands and tells their users they give up because xxx is too hard. Just tell me what's wrong and let me decide! Then if your userbase crashes you can make the decision if you want to continue or not. Deciding for yourself what's important to me is extremely frustrating as a user. Kinda like when Microsoft deprecated the SmtpClient Class in .NET and told people to use MailKit instead.
So now it's taboo to use the perfectly good Microsoft class which only takes 6 LOC to send an email and everyone is crapping their pants trying to make 300 LOC mailkit scripts to perform the same task. Because some clown at Microsoft got a hard-on over MailKit and decided to burn their own house down.
