Basically you're saying, "We should write it all ourselves so we can control it and keep it 'official'."

Somehow this strikes me as similar to a CEO of a company telling his IT folks not to use that "Word Press" thing for their site because "we want to keep control of our software".

Why reinvent the wheel?  StackOverflow exists, **right now** and you want to hand-create something that does the same job.  I don't get it.
