This seems like wishful thinking, though: most of the attempts of media companies to take on "disruptive" technologies end up looking fairly ridiculous.
This is akin to saying that you should not be using libc, on account of there being many newer, more suitable libraries for string manipulation, I/O, and so on.
There's a clear downside to having dependencies on relatively obscure, cutting-edge technologies that may not necessarily work or be available elsewhere. And since build systems usually don't really need to be fancy, as much as they need to work, being conservative in this area usually doesn't hurt.
