It's not the framework's fault that you have to rewrite everything.

You can take measures to make the framework replaceable. Some frameworks make this a little easier and safer and some make it a terrible experience (read: ActiveRecord ORMs) forcing the team to write a lot of code to protect the application.

However you bring up a good point that not all applications need to be built framework agnostic. If the lifespan of an application is one year then it's probably a lot more cost effective to just go with framework's best practices. But is it easy to say how long the lifespan can be? 🤔
