Sounds very familiar. Very very rarely we come across people with creativity, willing to learn, do things differently. Majority is just a trend follower. Following trend is also not a problem, if you know why you are following it. They just do so because their seniors or elders told so. I remember interviewing intern who uttered the word "Java" nearly 10 times in a 2/3 minute conversation emphasizing that she doesn't want anything else ever. Her sole aim is to code in Java. I have nothing against Java, but a closed mindset worries me.
