Reminds me of when I used to work at Cisco. All the software there for routers must be written in C. As a result everything takes much longer than it should.
It always seemed weird to me to hire expensive specialists only to slap them around and override their experience by insisting on sub-optimal tools, methods and work environments. It took me 30 years of diligent, daily practice to get here. That experience better be put to good use or I'm out, I have no patience for business bullshit.
