If you found yourself using a boring, proven, working technology ...how vividly would you remember that experience?

You would have a feeling of trust.

As an example: I click on a browser icon and I get a working browser with a predictable behaviour.

One day, chromium edge took over, messed up a ton of settings,and kept on blathering about my experience. 5 minutes of filling out a work sheet changed to 30 minutes of whack a browser.

My amicable brotherly feelings of good that day did not extend to the average Microsoft employee.

My experience using PHP at my previous company stands out because it was so relatively glorious.
