>The utter superficiality of your comment is the perfect demonstration of the fashion driven nature of software development. You're not worried about the language. You're worried about the marketing and whether or not you feel cool...

You walk into a bookshop, undecided on what you want to read next. On every shelf are books in plain white covers. You pick one out at random and look at the front. There is no illustration at all to give you any hint as to what it's about. Just the plain white cover with the title of the book. You flip it over. On the back cover, instead of a summary of the plot, there is just an index of chapter titles.

If that's not enough for you upon which to base your decision on whether or not to purchase, then you're an incredibly shallow and fashion-led reader

[Feel free to create similar analogies. For example; a supermarket in which every tin, packet and bottle has a plain white label with 'Food' written on the front and nothing but an ingredients list on the back]
