Again, you're point is fine. If you want to chose the best and most efficient tools for your application, awesome. All im saying is theres nothing inheritly wrong with using express. I understand if its a technology thats far phased out of favor in multiple respects and will significantly hinder your application, but with express thats just not the case.

I disagree that making poor technology choices does not constitute a problem.

I also disagree, that wasn't my point. Again, all im saying is express doesn't present significant enought issues in comparison to other frameworks for it to have to be phased out.

I think that express does present significant issues and is a poor technology choice. It's unmaintained and hasn't had a release in 6 years, that's just the beginning of its problems: dev.to/romainlanz/why-you-should-d...

That i'll have to agree with, i wouldn't recommend implementing unmaintained technologies into any production application. I wasn't actually aware of that.
