I am glad that your circumstances are such that you can just stop working on a project when the tooling it uses turns out to be inadequate, wait five years, and then come back when it improves.

Unfortunately, many people can't really do that: when the ecosystem turns out to be somewhat inadequate in a project that's already been in use for couple of years, their options are either "just make it work one way or another, who cares if it's a hardcoded string, we have to ship the fix ASAP" or "rewrite it all in Rust/X, allegedly their ecosystem is production-ready".
