That's because they're back end devs. There is one way to do things, you learn the one way to do the thing, you do it that way, you're done.
The fun is in front end, there is 15 different ways of doing things, but you don't like any of them, so you develop a 16th way, eventually you get bored of the 16th way so come up with a 17th way. Eventually you get sick of all of this and go back to SSGs as God intended.
