This reminds me of a start up doing the exact opposite. Small team, this guy just created his app using tried and true tech (RoR, jQuery for a Shopify app) because that was all that was needed. It not only made development faster for him, but when they hired me I could get working on features immediately with little complication. That isn't to say there is never any value in the new frameworks, but by not using anything fancy when he didn't need it, the guy was making a high 6 figure salary and able to hire people to boot.
