There's also strong pressure to take whatever the "safe" choice seems to be. If everyone's jumping on some technology, and your manager already mentioned it, even, then you will catch no blame even if it's entirely terrible. Advocate for something else, and win, and congrats, now even if it's way better every little hiccup and difficulty is your fault.
To experience it on a smaller scale, get a family member (non tech savvy) who uses windows/macOS to use linux for a few days. Everything that is not the same as it was on windows/macOS will be your fault even if the linux way is better/faster/cleaner than windows.
Framing it like this is unproductive IMO. There's merit to picking technologies that help you and your teammates grow as engineers. You can take it too far...we should accept that it's a messy process to find the balance that lets us be productive now while helping us be more productive in the future.
As an engineering leader sometimes that even means knowing that people are making the wrong decision, and letting them do it anyway, and then helping them learn from it.
