Hardly.  First of all, some of us have what's sometimes referred to as
"legacy code" - I.e. something that's already written in MFC, and is far
easier to maintain than rewrite in the library of the month.
Second, if you really know MFC well, there's no question that you can be
more productive with it than you can with another library that you don't
know as well.
Third, most libraries are quite good at some things, and quite poor at
others.  Depending on the sorts of things you work with, you may derive
little benefit from many many libraries, above or beyond the relatively
simple UI areas that MFC handles quite well.
    Later,
    Jerry.
