The biggest problem with this culture is that it means that when the One True Way is wrong , we suck it up and use it anyways.

The biggest problem with this culture is that it means that when the One True Way is wrong , we suck it up and use it anyways. I mean, Entity Framework is great, WebAPI is slick, and MVC has its moments, but there are some real trainswrecks. I've used all three XML serializers in the .NET framework and they're all cringeworthy. ASP.Net WebForms could have been something spectacular with open development instead of the hideous monstrosity it was. And MSBuild would have been laughed out of the room and regarded as some kind of bizarre eccentricity like TempleOS or UrBit instead of a serious build system.
