I'm happy to hear that. There is significant value in using common tools |
| 8 |
so that future contributors don't have an increased barrier to entry. |

Although there may be a tool perfectly suited to every job, if you're |
| 11 |
using tons of different tools, then nobody else will ever be able to |
| 12 |
pick them all up to maintain or contribute to the code. Same thing goes |
| 13 |
for using obscure language features; in my experience, people tend not |
| 14 |
to consider future maintenance or contributions by people besides |
| 15 |
themselves. |
