That advice seems like nonsense. It's like saying avoid C because you can use Python, or avoid writing a graphics engine because you can license Unreal.

Not at all, the advice is like use SDL or Raylib instead of writing your framebuffer blitter in inline Assembly to call from C.

Depends if the purpose is learning or actually delivery something on the same amount of time.

Each one has their place.
