That's, to me, the reason to avoid some of the more obscure systems,
even if they are better in some technical sense.  This is the same
reason, in the absence of a bunch of LISP geniuses, I would not
advocate writing things in LISP.  Or whatever.  The most useful tool
is the tool you know and that will do the job, and that goes as well
for source control as for database systems or languages or operating
systems.
