If you're using tools/languages that change rapidly (like Kotlin, in my case), syntax from a few years ago will often be outdated.

Yes, yet there are programming questions that go beyond "how do I do X in language Y" or "how do I do X with library Y". The language and library specific questions are the ones where I would be less inclined to want additional depth anyhow, well, provided they aren't dependent upon some language or library specific implementation detail.
