Really? For me, it has been almost exclusively management not wanting to invest the manpower necessary for the adoption.

If the technology stack allows it, I assume most passionate developers would develop rather with newer than older toolchains.

These might be two sides of the same coin - usually the reason there is a huge manpower requirement is because of the libraries and supporting tools.

Most developers want to use the newest and greatest, but are held back.
