Using fancy features does not make you a better programmer. It is the other way around.

Being a better programmer makes you use fancy features?
Charitably interpreted: A better programmer knows using a fancy feature _can_ result in better code, but, also knows that fancy features usually aren't required to write good code (and that fancy features can turn good code into bad code when reached for too quickly)
