In America, I would say that if enough people complain about something, they
usually start influencing the marketers -- especially if they noticeably
stop using what they don't like.
There are plenty of alternatives to being "force fed" any sort of bad
computing practices. You may have to use what you are told to use here at
your place of employment, but you don't have to do that at home. If you
have your own business here, you can use what you want. Privately, you are
certainly free to learn on your own whatever you want.
