They have to be to escape the brain-damaging crutches imposed by the language. A simple test - what percentage of VFP developers know what in the context of a process or a thread, the concept of a handle represents, as opposed to a token or an id? I'd venture to guess that the percentage is vanishingly small, especially when compared to people developing in C++ or Java. The typical VFP programmer isn't aware of what the differences are, and won't lift a finger to learn it unless jabbed repeatedly with a powerful cattleprod. The lack of initiative on the part of the VFP developer community creates the need for 'backwards compatibility'. How much hue and cry came from the BASIC developers when BASIC transiteds to VB, and gave up a whole lot of 'backwards compatibility' in the process.
