    There's a lot of beefing and complaining going on here, hearkening back to the early 20th century when doubtless the same complaints were heard about the Ford assembly line:

    1. This guy's gonna put us craftsmen/ex-bicyclemakers out of business

    2. Yeah it's easy to make a black car on an assembly line but watch out when they ask him to make one in colour

    3. This guy has some kind of hidden agenda; I don't care if this technique will save my company thousands of dollars -- I'm not going to be hooked.

    All of which makes me think this guy's on to something....

    1. Doubtful. There is always a place for craftsmen (Ferrari/Porsche/Customcars/"pimping" and so on)

    2. Or just wait until they start recalling cars because of a flaw in the assembly line. So instead of a few cars... its ALL of them

    3. They all scream that. Use <insert tech> and save money/time and create better/faster/more efficient code.
