That is actually a good point indeed. We also have very old tech in production including some ALGOL.
I do have the impression that the JS Frameworks race has been slowing down a bit. Sure there will always be some new ideas, but the big frameworks are there for quite some. At least with GWT/Java it is rather easy to maintain! GWT does not change much, sometimes that is an advantage.
