Why are you all surprised? Every hotshot computer sciences graduate student is passing his or her academic norm by inventing yet-another-functional-dynamic-language™. Sadly the geeks of this world are abusing agile peer development models such as SCRUM to push such experimental technologies into multi million dollar business ventures.

You simply do not have the right to act surprised now. Hire proper development manager and architect with dual background (dev and business) and reign in the loose cannon geeks and you'll get a stable system built on proven technologies.
