That's moronic. What if you don't have a choice? And the "best" is whatever is most suited to the task and user. Plus you're forgetting it's one of the most widely used version control suites, which is one reason to use it (not because you're "following the pack") -- but for the same reason you pick standard libraries over some third-party library that does the same thing even if better (because of testing, documentation, training, etc)).
