Back in the 80's and 90's, when I was a strong advocate of OOP in general and Smalltalk in particular, I continually ran into the obstacle I came to think of as the IASFBSIDHTTT syndrome: I Am So Far Behind Schedule I Don't Have Time To Think. Whether dealing with in-house or out-house (never did like that "in-house" thing!) developers, the problem was the same: even if you could prove absolutely that this new language was more powerful and effective than my current tool set, I don't have time to evaluate it, learn it, and rebuild all my libraries and tools in it.
