I think it's helpful if it brings awareness to the situation.

I've spoken with 70+ different devs working on 70+ different projects of all sizes on my Running in Production podcast[0] and the choose boring tech phrase came up a whole bunch of times, and especially the idea of using innovation tokens. If it helps folks build and ship their app in a quick and stable way, that seems like a big win to me.

It must have been a weird coincidence but I listened to a few episodes for your podcast and I've actually heard about boring technology in 100% of episodes I listened to
Hah yeah, coincidence for sure. I don't have hard numbers in front of me but based on reference links to the boring tech site it's been mentioned at least half a dozen times. I know innovation tokens have been spoken about a few times outside of those linked episodes too.
