While the skeptical's stall in decision making, new comers who do not think twice about rewriting. Rewrite software on a smaller budget in experimental attempts. Then management decides to chose the cheaper option available, because lean startup is promising. Then in next 10 years the new comers become the new skepticals. I don't know if there's a case that this cycle is not repeated, at any time frame.

I've read your comment several times and still don't know what it means. Can you clarify?

I've rewritten it for clarity: "While the skeptics stall in decision making, newcomers will not think twice about rewriting software on a smaller budget as an experiment. Then management will decide to choose the cheapest option available, because the lean startup was more competitive. Then in the next 10 years, the newcomers become the new skeptics. In my experience this cycle is always repeated, albeit across different time frames."

I made the difficult choice to rewrite it in English again, even though French might have been more performant.
