But that's true of virtually EVERY tool.  People cling to what they
know and avoid what they don't.  Your job (as employer) is to decide
how to get the best quality "product" from your employees at the
most economical price (cost).

I worked at a place many years ago that was perpetually engaged in
a "hex vs octal" debate.  As if COMMITTING TO MEMORY "0377" is
somehow "better" than remembering "0xFF".

Because one group "thought" in terms of octal ("split octal"...
377 377 is 0xFFFF) while the other in terms of hexadecimal.

Despite the fact that the tools of the day had already moved
to *symbolic* references (what does 0xFF *represent*?)

As a contractor, I often had little say over what tools a
client chose to use.  Silly to go on a reeducation campaign
with EACH client to bring them up to whatever *I* considered
"best" (for their needs).  Instead, I'd factor in the cost
of learning/adapting to their toolchain (as well as their
business practices) in my estimate (and desire!) for their job.
