It’s quite possible and very likely they do. But this post doesn’t describe their rationale and it just seems like a waste of effort.

If I worked there and relied on Basecamp and had to migrate to something new, for these reasons, I would be frustrated. And I would trust my tech org less because they aren’t making decisions to make it most efficient for me to build things.

As a developer, I don’t want to worry about whether my company is going to arbitrarily decide to switch technologies to something inferior.
