> When you're writing a specific program, e.g. it's never going to be anything more than "Hello, world!", why would you use the fattest framework when you can write it in plain HTML?

Emphasised the parts I think you should re-read

Sorry, I guess I disregarded it because I figured we were talking about serious programming, not literally "Hello world".

And if you're writing a single "Hello world", HTML is overkill. Make a free website on a random platform and literally just write "Hello world" in their WYSIWIG editor. Or hell, just serve plain text with "Hello world" inside, browsers will render it just fine.

I mean, don't use "the fattest framework" then, who is forcing you to use it for writing hello world?

As you get more experienced in programming you'll inevitably inherit projects that you didn't have any say over, when that time comes come back to this comment, I'd be interested to hear if you still feel the same way.
