A Hobbist coder for sure can spend time for learning the new coding standards, becuse he does it for hobby. Has already an income for living.
A Business coder must makes some calculations. eg How long it will takes me to learn it? How wide is the potential market for my new work? etc etc.

But let's say that everybody can act as hobbist coder. Where is the documentation for new standars? If you say me "Open that file and see that...", sorry you're not a coder, you're a copier. I'm pround that having 30+ vB addons, I never opened a vB core file to see (or worst to copy) a single line of code. And I'll award anybody if he can find a single line of code in my mods which exists on vB core files. The only "copy" that maybe exists is from Articles published here. But not from vB files.
