I don't see how it's so bizarre.  I'd paraphrase it thus:

        I admit that Haskell (or whatever) might make my job much
        easier, but I don't *know* any Haskell, and I do know
        Java, and it's definitely better than Apple II Basic for
        web programming, which is what they pay me for, so I guess
        I'll use Java.
