A familiar tool can remain the best choice after a newer one appears.

Newness gets counted as improvement more readily than it deserves. A tool you know well carries years of learned speed in your hands, and the replacement has to make up all of that ground before it is genuinely better for you, whatever the specification says. Fluency is a real advantage that comparisons never list.

When you feel the pull to upgrade, ask what specifically is failing about the old one. If the honest answer is nothing, keeping it is not stubbornness. Save the switch for when the current thing is actually holding you back, and enjoy the ease of a tool you no longer have to think about.
