I'd have to agree with Andreas that this is an unprofitable way to approach
the discussion. There are better and worse kinds of hammers, but they can
all pretty much be used to drive nails, and talking about the relative
merits of the various hammers won't get any nails driven.

Changing tools will not cause work which hasn't gotten done so far to
magically become accomplished independently of someone's sitting down and
doing it. My favorite flute instruction book has this advice on the first
page, in large letters: "MERE POSSESSION OF THIS BOOK IS _NOT_ SUFFICIENT."
