I didn't downvote you, but it's certainly fine to pass on something you think is a fad. It's another thing to jump directly to the end of the emotion spectrum by saying "hard no". My comment wasn't about skipping shiny things, it was about being so vocally firm about the negative. That doesn't leave much room for reconsideration later.
What if the project turns out to not be a fad, and a month or six later more people are using it and loving it? How does a "hard no" person back down from their bold rejection? This is what I was talking about.
