But things to do with art or entertainment is down to people's tastes so technically advanced doesn't necessarily mean the person will like it more.
People still like to eat food from recipes from hundreds of years ago even though meals made with chemicals and liquid nitrogen etc. might be more technically advanced.
Same with music - a synthesizer is more technically advanced than a harp but that doesn't necessarily mean everyone would prefer it.
I have no interest at all in that - I'm not "anti" it, it just isn't something I've ever wanted or felt the need to use.

I have seen knowledge eradicated in my industry because of the move to a data driven regime - which is fine, although the risk is that we lose expertise over a longer sustained period - because we are not respecting the past.
For some that's no restrictions so something ultra modern and well engineered and for others it means a link back to the music that made them want to play in the first place.
Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
Wis'd. This is the point that underlies so many of the debates we have around guitars - innovation vs tradition, relics, nitro vs poly etc etc. The technicalities do not matter. Whether something would be discernible in a blind test does not matter. Whether something like wear and tear is "real" doesn;t matter. It's about creative and performance headspace and even if something that gets you in that space is entirely delusional, it still doesn't matter if it helps you make the music you want to make in the way you want to make it. We also can't forget that music is show biz too and there's a whole layer of iconography that goes along with it which is also perfectly valid.
