It took me quite a while to get traction back then with ZendFramework V1.0

I fiddled around with Flow, from Typo3 and a bit of Laravel.

If you only add a controller here and there and do some simple database query you can work in 20 frameworks in one language in parallel.

I side with you, frameworks per project on a rapidly changing basis won’t work. Experience is a must, 3-6 month extensive exposure to doing some heavy lifting as well as debugging is a necessity. Staying up to date and dealing with migration issues as well as older version maintenance is a must, code reviews, build pipelines, even bug fixes or change requests.

Also frameworks evolve quite a bit over time and there also seems to be trends and biases towards certain tools or add-ins in certain cases, setups, configurations.

So in my experience I never met a jack of all trades, only real masters of one framework with all the ins and outs.
