I've worked at a company where each and every single engineer was free to pick up what he felt was the best tool for the job.
It was an utter mess of unmaintainable code, and everyone wasted time trying to get projects not die out of bitrot.
Training people is not a problem. You also do not have to train everyone to create a single project in a particular framework/programming language. What you do have to factor into your analysis is the inefficiency of having to waste time managing multiple fameworks/runtimes/deployments/programming language development environments, and the lack of progress you will have in your team's skillsets if everyone turns into a one-man silo.
