It isn't that the companies' standards are so rigid, it's that they are
very simple:

Don't do anything that the person who wrote the majority of the system
doesn't understand.

In some businesses the programmer's are too busy keeping up with the
business itself to keep up with technology, too. It's a shame, but a fact.
In the long run it costs the business, but I don't think a lot of business
owners understand that. I don't think that a lot of technical people
understand that.

Of course, it's hard to see the advantages of a technology that you are not
using.
