The reason people advocate one view or another is that they think it the best way to make sure you can get the things done that you need.
You may be right that it doesn't matter, but that's just one view of it. And you better watch out, someone else might call YOU a Zealot!
Look at phones, where some people said what OS is on it doesn't matter as long as you get the features you want. Apple gives you a slick phone that restricts the apps and underlying technologies depriving Apple users of Flash. Android is rougher, but wide open giving people what they want or need.
So, I guess the underlying tech IS important because it decides who is in control.
