The question is: what are you going to argue for instead? Not using the web at all is a non-starter, especially in the retail space where you'd get killed by a web-based competitor.

I don't know what your experience is, but historically my bosses haven't given half of a damn what tech stack I use. They care that I deliver on what I promise. Hypothetically, I could still be using PHP/HTML/jQuery but there are a great many reasons I don't and not one of them has to do with padding my resume.
