I have run the local ColdFusion users development group for over 25 years. I have heard variations of this same conversation more than I can count. Sometimes there are good reasons to move, company got bought and doesn't want five percent of their code to run on a different platform. But a lot of times the new CTO only knows asp.NET or Java or PHP so he commits the organization to a multi-year transition when they can't take on new work.
I have written programs in Node, Ruby on Rails, Nuxt. Ported programs to PERL and PHP. I just happen to like coding in CFML and I do not judge someone having another preference.
I have had people say ColdFusion isn't modern. But when I dig a little bit I inevitably find out their understanding of the language dates to 98-99. Python and PHP have changed a great deal since then why wouldn't CFML have done so? Did you know for example there are two open-source versions of CFML?
