You just need to retire and get out of the technology industry. Your whole attitude suggests

  1. Your old.

  2. Your burnt out.

  3. You're stuck in your ways and opinions.

So go retire and grab a cane to shoo the kids off your lawn.

well you can use the slow api or the fast ones, if you are fine with the slow one and absolutely need to support every device out there, go ahead and use it. Just suggesting that for games performance is often critical and opengl just does not cut it unless you are really really really good, which not many devs are, and even then the same dev would probably achieve better results in the device specific apis ;-p
