From my very limited view in my opinion it's not worth it. There is an abundance of new frameworks and libraries and everybody wants to go for the "new cool thing". Things break a lot, things change fast and you need to always learn new stuff which are not necessarily better. It seem annoying and overkill to keep up with everything in the front-end world. Plus, there are no interesting problems to solve there.

"Plus, there are no interesting problems to solve there."

This is laughable and short sighted.

Why give throwaway advice? "I don't really know the space, but here's what you should do..."

Did I say I don't know the space? Does it sound like I never did front-end development? You should learn how to parse properly. I tried it, it sucks, and that's why.
