If you

understand what it is you're replacing, what you're replacing it with, and how to use the replacement

then you, almost by definition, are an advanced user.

A beginner should avoid these things, once you are far enough along to understand why you might want to replace one of these things, and form your own opinion on it, then go right ahead. But you're no longer a beginner at that point.

I took the title from the link, which doesn't exactly match the title on the page. That's why one says 20 years and the other says 15 years.
