Jess,
I'm not so sure. With some developers, undoubtedly you're correct & it would be a trap, however, VFP developers are, it seems to me, a different breed of developer. They have to be or they wouldn't be using FoxPro in the first place. As a result I think that Frameworks would be as much of a 'worked example' than anything else especially at first.
Still, I'm guessing at this point since I haven't had any experience with developers new to VFP, only FP.
