No you are not alone. But you are minority. Majority sees the language not as a tool to solve specific problems, but as a goal, i.e. a way to chase its own tail endlessly. Hence the rudderless pursuit of new. The whole industry is in ADD mode - they moment they create something useful, they discard it and start a new quest.

Projects which never improve get replaced in a few years by new projects which did things better, and by other old projects which improved.

This is not ADD, this is not rudderless. This is preferring actively maintained and improved things over old crap that never gets fixed
