Should old school aspects of ZZT still be used in new games?

examples:

While Old School ZZT isn't my thing all the time, I appreciate it some times. This all started with Zephyr in #Rawr talking about MLH's 24Hozzt game being oldshool.

Yeah. Well, as afforementioned, it's good at times, but not to be overused.

I always enjoyed WCB's ZZT games that were in the style of town and the like. Pyramid of ZZT I think is one of them.

Town of ZZT tip: It's fun to surround big fields of breakables with a border of normals so you can say to the player, "Haaaaaaa ha, you can't shoot my breakables."

There was a poll at first... I don't know what happened to it.
Maybe I'll try and add it again.

-edit

I remade the poll, but it is pretty screwy.
